UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff - Appellee,

WILLIAM BRIAN SHARPE,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western Dis- trict of North Carolina, at Charlotte. Robert D. Potter, Senior District Judge. (CR-91-69-C-P)

Submitted: January 9, 1997 Decided: January 21, 1997

Before HALL and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges, and PHILLIPS, Senior Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

William Brian Sharpe, Appellant Pro Se. Kenneth Davis Bell, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Charlotte, North Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM:

Appellant appeals the district court's order denying his

motion to reduce his term of imprisonment. We have reviewed the

record and the district court's order and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.

United States v. Sharpe, No. CR-91-69-C-P (W.D.N.C. Mar. 29, 1996). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten-

tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court

and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
