          The Honorable William F. Kuntz, II, of the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of New York, sitting by designation.
For Appellee:                            PAUL D. SILVER (Richard R. Southwick, on the brief),
                                         Assistant United States Attorneys, for Richard S.

                                         District of New York, Albany, NY

For Defendants-Appellant:                JAMES P. EGAN (Lisa A. Peebles, on the brief), Federal
                                         Public Defender’s Office, Syracuse, NY


        Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northen District of New York
(Scullin, J.).

       ON CONSIDERATION WHEREOF, it is hereby ORDERED, ADJUDGED, and

DECREED that the judgment of the district court be and hereby is AFFIRMED.

       Defendant-Appellant Karl Walters appeals from an order of the United States District

Court for the Northen District of New York (Scullin, J.) dated January 18, 2012. In that order,

the district court refused to reduce Walters’s sentence under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) to a term of

imprisonment that fell below his amended guideline range. We affirm for the reasons set forth in

United States v. Clifton Stith, 11-4933-cr (2d Cir. May 30, 2013).

       We have considered the Defendant-Appellant’s remaining arguments and find them to be

without merit. For the reasons stated herein, the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.

                                         FOR THE COURT:
                                         CATHERINE O’HAGAN WOLFE, CLERK
