See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Lazaro Tapia-Santana appeals the district court's order deny-

ing his motion to remit payment of his criminal fine.   We have re-

viewed the record and the district court's opinion and find no

reversible error.   Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court. See United States v. Tapia-Santana, No. CR-93-62-3

(E.D.N.C. June 22, 1999).   We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.




                                                          AFFIRMED
