Bernard Middleton, Appellant Pro Se. James L. Trump, Assistant United States Attorney, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Bernard Middleton appeals the district court’s order

denying his motion for reduction of sentence,

(c)(2) (2006). We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated

by the district court. United States v. Middleton, No. 1:92-cr-

00348-CMH-3 (E.D. Va. filed Aug. 25; entered Aug. 26, 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
