PER CURIAM.
Dennis S. Dokes challenges the District Court’s1 denial of his motion for a
hearing on whether the government breached his plea agreement by failing to move
for a sentence reduction based on his cooperation. Having carefully reviewed the
record and considered Dokes’s arguments on appeal, we conclude that the District
Court did not abuse its discretion for the reasons explained in the court’s opinion. See
8th Cir. R. 47B. We also grant counsel’s motion to withdraw, and we deny as moot
Dokes’s pending motion.
