Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

          Edward Blaine Mintz appeals the district court’s order

denying his motion to appoint new counsel and for an extension

of time to file a motion to reconsider the denial of his motion

to reduce 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. Mintz, No. 1:08-cr-

00040-MR-1    (W.D.N.C.   Nov.   7,   2012).   We   dispense   with   oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately

presented in the materials before this court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.

                                                                AFFIRMED
