Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Donald Devan Edwards, Appellant Pro Se. James Michael Sullivan,
Assistant United States Attorney, Kenneth Davis Bell, OFFICE OF THE
UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Charlotte, North Carolina, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Donald Devan Edwards appeals the district court’s order
denying his motion for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record
and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error, as
Edwards improperly invoked the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure to
collaterally attack a criminal judgment. Accordingly, we affirm the
district court’s denial of Edwards’ motion for reconsideration. 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
