PER CURIAM:

       Raymond Lewis Perry appeals the district court’s order and judgment granting in

part Perry’s 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2018) motion and vacating Perry’s conviction and term of

imprisonment for Count 2, using, carrying, and possessing a firearm during and in relation

to a crime of violence, and aiding and abetting such conduct, in violation of 18 U.S.C.

§§ 924(c)(1)(A)(i), 2 (2018), and correcting Perry’s term of imprisonment for Count 4,

using, carrying, and brandishing a firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence and

aiding and abetting such conduct, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 924(c)(1)(A)(ii), 2 (2018).

We affirm in part and vacate and remand in part.

       Perry contends that he was entitled to a plenary resentencing and that his convictions

for Counts 4, 6, and 8 are invalid because the underlying Hobbs Act robbery offenses are

not crimes of violence. A district court “has broad discretion in crafting relief on a § 2255

claim.” United States v. Chaney, 911 F.3d 222, 225 (4th Cir. 2018). Although the court is

authorized to conduct a resentencing in awarding relief pursuant to § 2255, it is not required

to do so. United States v. Hadden, 475 F.3d 652, 668 (4th Cir. 2007). As this court

observed, a successful § 2255 proceeding must result in “the vacatur of the prisoner’s

unlawful sentence . . . and one of the following: (1) the prisoner’s release, (2) the grant of

a future new trial to the prisoner, (3) or a new sentence, be it imposed by (a) a resentencing

or (b) a corrected sentence.” Id. at 661; see also 28 U.S.C. § 2255(b). “[T]he goal of

§ 2255 review is to place the defendant in exactly the same position he would have been

had there been no error in the first instance.” Hadden 475 F.3d at 665 (internal quotation

marks omitted).

                                              2
      We conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Perry’s

request for a plenary resentencing. The district court appropriately vacated the term of

imprisonment ordered for Count 2 and reduced Perry’s term of imprisonment for Count 4.

Perry was not entitled to resentencing on the remaining firearm convictions, Counts 6 and

8. Furthermore, the court properly found that Perry’s convictions for Counts 4, 6, and 8,

remained valid. See United States v. Mathis, 932 F.3d 242, 265-66 (4th Cir. 2019) (holding

that Hobbs Act robbery constitutes a crime of violence under § 924(c)’s force clause). Yet,

in vacating the sentence for Count 2, the district court should have also vacated the $100

special assessment and the 5-year term of supervised release ordered for that conviction.

       Accordingly, we affirm in part the district court’s order and judgment correcting

Perry’s term of imprisonment, but vacate that portion of the court’s judgment ordering the

$100 special assessment and 5-year term of supervised release for Count 2, and remand for

the limited purpose of correcting Perry’s total special assessment, and returning the $100

assessment for Count 2 if appropriate. 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 IN PART,
                                                  VACATED AND REMANDED IN PART
