PER CURIAM:

            Dairus    Kiowa       Perkins       appeals      the   district       court’s

orders finding him ineligible for a sentence reduction under 18

U.S.C.     § 3582(c)(2)         (2006),     and       denying      his     motion     for

reconsideration.           We   have   reviewed        the    record     and   find   no

reversible error.      Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated

by the district court.             United States v. Perkins, No. 4:96-cr-

30029-jlk-1 (W.D. Va. Nov. 19, 2009; Dec. 22, 2009).                           We deny

Perkins’    motion    to    hold    Appeal      No.    09-8156     in    abeyance     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
