Robert Allen Taylor, Appellant Pro Se. Joseph Lee Evans, OFFICE OF
THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Robert Allen Taylor appeals from the district court’s order

denying his motion filed under Fed. R. Crim. P. 35(b).      We have

reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no

reversible error.    Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court.     United States v. Taylor, No. CR-99-567-S (D. Md.

Aug. 15, 2001).     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
