See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Anthony Christopher Christian appeals the district court’s

order denying his motion for modification of his sentence under 18

U.S.C.A. § 3582(c)(2) (West Supp. 1998). We have reviewed the rec-

ord and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See

United States v. Christian, No. CR-91-230-WS (M.D.N.C. Sept. 24,

1998).   We deny Christian’s motion for appointment of counsel and

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
