PER CURIAM:
Roger D. King appeals his sentence resulting from the district
court’s revocation of his term of supervised release. Because King
admitted to the violations of the conditions of his supervised
release, we find that the district court did not abuse its
discretion by revoking the term of supervised release. See United
States v. Davis, 53 F.3d 638, 642 (4th Cir. 1995). We must next
decide if the sentence imposed by the district court was plainly
unreasonable. See 18 U.S.C. § 3742(a)(4) (2000). King had two
previous revocation hearings before the district court and was
warned that his next appearance would result in jail time. The
district court was also aware that the United States Sentencing
Guidelines recommended a range of imprisonment between five and
eleven months given King’s violations. The court also considered
mitigating evidence offered by King before revoking the supervised
release. Given King’s two prior revocation hearings before the
district court and the fact that the court’s sentence was within
the recommended range of the Sentencing Guidelines, King’s sentence
is not plainly unreasonable.
Accordingly, King’s sentence is affirmed. 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
