Assistant United States Attorney, Florence, South Carolina, for
Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

          Michael   Brown      appeals    the    district    court’s     order

denying his motion for downward departure.             We have reviewed the

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

district court’s order.        United States v. Brown, No. 4:06-cr-

00582-RBH-1   (D.S.C.   Nov.    14,   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
