Submitted: September 28, 2018 Decided: October 15, 2018

Before FLOYD and THACKER, Circuit Judges, and TRAXLER, Senior Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Arous John Phillips, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Arous John Phillips appeals the district court’s order dismissing his motion filed

under

(2012). The district court held that § 3742 provides only for the

filing of notice of direct appeal and concluded that any appeal would be untimely. We

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

reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Phillips, No. 2:10-cr-00048-AWA-

TEM-4 (E.D. Va. Feb. 21, 2018). We deny Phillips’ motion for a transcript at

Government expense. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument

would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
