Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

             Nicholean Bernard Hicklen, Jr., appeals the district

court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2)                (2006) motion

for reduction of sentence.           We have reviewed the record and find

no reversible error.        Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons

stated by the district court.               United States v. Hicklen, No.

3:99-cr-00187-FDW-1 (W.D.N.C. Aug. 11, 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
