Submitted: October 20, 2008 Decided: October 29, 2008

Before SHEDD, DUNCAN, and AGEE, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Robert James Wagner, Assistant Federal Public Defender, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellant. Brian Ronald Hood, Assistant United States Attorney, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Thomas Lee Ward appeals the district court’s order

denying his

(c)(2) (West 2000 & Supp. 2008)

motion for reduction of sentence. We have reviewed the record

and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the

reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Ward,

No. 3:00-cr-00146-REP-1 (E.D. Va. June 20, 2008). 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
