We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Wells v. United States, No. CA-04-292-2 (E.D. Va. Oct. 18, 2004). 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 - 2 -
