PER CURIAM:

           Malcolm Eugene Golson appeals the district court’s order

and opinion denying his motion to compel the Government to file a

motion   for    a   reduction    in   his     sentence    due    to     substantial

assistance.     We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

order and affirm for the reasons of the district court.                  See United

States v. Golson, Nos. CR-01-47, CA-02-774 (E.D. Va. Jan. 3, 2005).

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
