See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     George T. O’Brien appeals the district court’s order denying

modification of his terms of supervised release. O’Brien’s conten-

tion that restrictions to his ability to operate a motor vehicle

are unnecessary to protect the public and bear no reasonable

relationship to his crime effectively attack the district court’s

original sentencing decision, and thus provide no basis for modi-

fication.     See United States v. Lussier, 

, 34 (2d Cir.

1997).   Accordingly, the order of the district court is affirmed.

We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten-

tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court

and argument would not aid the decisional process.




                                                            AFFIRMED
