PER CURIAM:

             Anson Diaz Lawrence appeals the district court’s order

denying his motion for reduction of sentence under 18 U.S.C.

§ 3582(c)(2) (2006).       We have reviewed the record and find the

district   court   did    not   abuse    its    discretion   in   denying   the

motion.    See United States v. Goines, 

, 478 (4th

Cir. 2004) (motion under § 3582(c) “is subject to the discretion

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

,

727 (4th Cir. 2000).       Thus, we affirm the district court’s order

for the reasons stated there.               See United States v. Lawrence,

No. 2:00-cr-00052-HCM-1 (E.D. Va. June 24, 2008).                  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
