See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Chester Francis Stone appeals from a 180-month sentence im- posed following his conditional guilty plea to being a felon in possession of a firearm, 18 U.S.C.A. § 922(g)(1) (West Supp. 1999).

Stone alleges that the district court erred when it denied his motion to suppress. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. See United States v. Raymond, 152 F.2d 309, 312 (4th Cir. 1998). Accordingly, we affirm Stone’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
