See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

      Joyce Thompson appeals the denial of her motion to modify a

term of imprisonment pursuant to 18 U.S.C.A. § 3582(c)(2) (West

2000).   The district court denied the motion by margin order dated

May 12, 2001, and entered May 14, 2001.           Thompson seeks to obtain

the   benefit   of   an   amendment   to   the   United   States   Sentencing

Guidelines.      However,    Thompson      was   not   sentenced   under   the

Guidelines, and therefore the amendments are not applicable to her.

Therefore, we affirm the district court’s denial of her motion to

modify. 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
