        Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northen District of New York
(Scullin, J.).

       ON CONSIDERATION WHEREOF, it is hereby ORDERED, ADJUDGED, and

DECREED that the judgment of the district court be and hereby is AFFIRMED.

       Defendants-Appellants Ramon and Felix Brito appeal from two orders that the United

States District Court for the Northen District of New York (Scullin, J.) entered on January 19,

2012. In those orders, the district court refused to reduce the Defendants-Appellants’ sentences

under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) to a term of imprisonment that fell below the Defendants-

Appellants’ amended guideline ranges. We affirm for the reasons set forth in United States v.

Clifton Stith, 11-4933-cr (2d Cir. May 30, 2013).

       We have considered the Defendants-Appellants’ remaining arguments and find them to

be without merit. For the reasons stated herein, the judgment of the district court is

AFFIRMED.

                                          FOR THE COURT:
                                          CATHERINE O’HAGAN WOLFE, CLERK
