Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Columbia. Cameron McGowan Currie, District Judge. (CR-01-132) Submitted: February 18, 2005 Decided: March 16, 2005 Before MICHAEL, MOTZ, and GREGORY, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. James H. Babb, HOWLE & BABB, L.L.P., Sumter, South Carolina, for Appellant. J. Strom Thurmond, Jr., United States Attorney, Christie Newman, Susan Z. Hitt, Assistant United States Attorneys, Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). - 2 - PER CURIAM: Jeffrey W. Johnston appeals from the district court’s garnishment disposition order granting the Government’s writs of continuing garnishment and denying Johnston’s motion to quash writs, and from the subsequent denial of his motion to reconsider, alter, and amend the garnishment disposition order. We find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See United States v. Johnston, No. CR-01-132 (D.S.C. May 3 & June 10, 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 - 3 -
