PER CURIAM:

          Shone Edward Wilkes appeals the district court’s order

denying relief on his motion for reduction of sentence under 18

U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2006).     We have reviewed the record and

find no reversible error.     Accordingly, we deny Wilkes’ motion

for appointment of counsel and affirm for the reasons stated by

the district court.   United States v. Wilkes, No. 3:01-cr-00031-

FDW-8 (W.D.N.C. Aug. 12, 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
