PER CURIAM: Michael L. McCormick appeals his conviction upon a conditional plea of guilty for operating a motor vehicle after having been adjudicated an habitual offender by the Commonwealth of Virginia in violation of 18 U.S.C.A. § 13 (West 1994 & Supp. 1999) (assimi- lating Va. Code Ann. § 46.2-357(B)(3) (Michie 1998)). McCormick contends that the district court erred in denying his motion to suppress the Government’s evidence and his incriminating statement on the basis that he was seized in violation of his Fourth Amend- ment rights by military police at the entrance of the Marine Base at Quantico, Virginia. We conclude that the district court prop- erly found that the search and seizure conducted on the closed military base did not violate McCormick’s Fourth Amendment rights.
See United States v. Jenkins, 986 F.2d 76, 78 (4th Cir. 1993).
Accordingly, we affirm McCormick’s conviction and sentence. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
