sistant United States Attorney, John Howarth Bennett, OFFICE OF THE

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Michael Scott McRae appeals the district court’s order denying
his motion for a new trial under Fed. R. Crim. P. 33. We have re-
viewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the
district court. See United States v. McRae, No. CR-97-94 (E.D.N.C.
Sept. 1, 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
