Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. USCA4 Appeal: 24-7092 Doc: 9 Filed: 06/20/2025 Pg: 2 of 2 PER CURIAM: Dyvae Davis appeals the district court’s order granting his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) motion for a sentence reduction. Limiting our review of the record to the issues raised in Davis’s informal brief, we have reviewed the record and discern no abuse of discretion. * United States v. Spruhan, 989 F.3d 266, 269 (4th Cir. 2021) (stating standard of review); see 4th Cir. R. 34(b); Jackson v. Lightsey, 775 F.3d 170, 177 (4th Cir. 2014) (“The informal brief is an important document; under Fourth Circuit rules, our review is limited to issues preserved in that brief.”). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED * To the extent Davis seeks to challenge the validity of his 18 U.S.C. § 924(c) conviction, he did not properly preserve that challenge for this appeal. 2
