Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Alex Contreras appeals from the district court’s order granting his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) motion for sentence reduction. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Contreras contends that the district court erred when it failed to hold a resentencing hearing governed by United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005), when ruling on his § 3582(c)(2) motion. This contention is foreclosed. See Dillon v. United States, — U.S.-,---, 130 S.Ct. 2683, 2690-92, 177 L.Ed.2d 271 (2010); Fed.R.Crim.P. 43(b)(4).

Contreras also contends that the district court erred by failing to correct a mistake in his original sentence when ruling on the § 3582(c)(2) motion. As a general rule, this court does not consider an issue raised for the first time on appeal. See United States v. Robinson, 20 F.3d 1030, 1032 (9th Cir.1994).

AFFIRMED.
