(CR-01-240)

William M. Bryson, Jr., Appellant Pro Se. Mark C. Moore, Assistant
United States Attorney, Columbia, South Carolina; Regan Alexandra
Pendleton, Assistant United States Attorney, Greenville, South
Carolina, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
William M. Bryson, Jr., appeals from the district court’s
order denying his motion for review of his sentence under 18 U.S.C.
§ 3742 (2000) and for modification of his sentence under 18 U.S.C.
§ 3582(c)(2) (2000). We have reviewed the record and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by
the district court. See United States v. Bryson, No. CR-01-240
(D.S.C. July 18, 2003). In his informal brief, Bryson asserts
several claims that were not raised in the district court. We
decline to address these claims. See Muth v. United States, 1 F.3d
246, 250 (4th Cir. 1993) (declining to consider claims raised for
first time on appeal, absent exceptional circumstances). 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
