1Opinion of the Court
TASHIMA, Circuit Judge:
Richard Dehart Charlesworth appeals the sentence imposed by the district court following his guilty plea to a charge of escape in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 751(a). The district court held that Charlesworth was not entitled to the four-level reduction for escape from non-secure custody under U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual (“U.S.S.G.”) § 2Pl.l(b)(3) (1998) because the Guideline disallows the reduction if the defendant committed a felony while unlawfully absent from custody. We have jurisdiction under 18 U.S.C. § 3742 and 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
