PER CURIAM:
William Jackie Pearson appeals the district court’s
order denying his motion for reduction of sentence, 18 U.S.C.
§ 3582(c)(2) (2006). We have reviewed the record and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we deny the motion for
appointment of counsel and affirm for the reasons stated by the
district court. United States v. Pearson, No. 4:98-cr-00015-
LHT-1 (W.D.N.C. filed Mar. 26, 2009, entered Mar. 27, 2009). 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
