Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Clinton Bernard Frazier-El, Appellant Pro Se. Lynn Ann Battaglia, MARYLAND COURT OF APPEALS, Annapolis, Maryland; Jamie M. Bennett, Assistant United States Attorney, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Clinton Bernard Frazier-El appeals the district

court’s order denying his motion for a downward departure. We

have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district

court. United States v. Frazier-El, No. 1:96-cr-00469-WMN-1 (D.

Md. Aug. 13, 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
