PER CURIAM:

          John Eric Hughes appeals the district court’s order

denying his motion for reduction of 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.

Hughes, No. 3:00-cr-00004-JRS-2 (E.D. Va. Apr. 17, 2012).                  We

deny Hughes’ motion for appointment of counsel.                  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
