Affirmed.
Before PHILLIPS and WILKINS, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.
OPINION
PER CURIAM:
John Francis Rourke appeals from the district court's order refusing relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2255. Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.* United States v. Rourke, No. CR-84-94-N, CA-89-14-N (E.D. Va. Aug. 24, 1990). 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
The district court incorrectly cited 21 U.S.C.s 841(b)(1) as the basis for Rourke's sentence, when in fact he was sentenced under 21 U.S.C. §§ 960(b)(1) and 963. Since these statutes at the time of the offense each authorized the same maximum penalty as § 841(b)(1), applying them does not change the outcome of the case
