Anthony McClain, Appellant Pro Se. Christopher Todd Hagins, Nancy
Chastain Wicker, Scarlett Anne Wilson, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES
ATTORNEY, Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

          Anthony   McClain   appeals    the   district   court’s   order

denying his motion under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2000), seeking a

reduction to his sentence based on an amendment to the Sentencing

Guidelines.   We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

error.   Accordingly, we find the district court did not abuse its

discretion in denying the motion. See United States v. Goines, 
357 F.3d 469
, 478 (4th Cir. 2004) (motion under § 3582(c) “is subject

to the discretion of the district court”); United States v. Legree,

205 F.3d 724
, 727 (4th Cir. 2000).      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
