No. 09-7068

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, v. DESMOND WARD, a/k/a David A. King, Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of North Carolina, at Charlotte. Graham C. Mullen, Senior District Judge. (3:96-cr-00029-GCM-2)

Submitted: October 20, 2009 Decided: October 26, 2009

Before TRAXLER, Chief Judge, NIEMEYER, Circuit Judge, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Desmond Ward, Appellant Pro Se. Amy Elizabeth Ray, Assistant United States Attorney, Asheville, North Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM: Desmond Ward appeals the district court’s order granting his motion for a sentence reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2006) and lowering his sentence from 235 months to months of imprisonment. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Contrary to Ward’s arguments on appeal, he is not entitled to a further reduction in his sentence. See United States v. Dunphy, 551 F.3d 247, 257 (4th Cir.), cert. denied, 129 S.Ct. 2401 (2009). Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Ward, No. 3:96-cr-00029-GCM-2 (W.D.N.C. May 27, 2009).

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
