PER CURIAM:
Ron Christopher Whitley appeals from the district court’s order denying his
18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(B) motion for reduction of sentence under § 404(b) of the First Step
Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391, § 404(b), 132 Stat. 5194, 5222. We have reviewed the
record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Whitley’s motion to appoint
counsel and affirm the district court’s order. United States v. Whitley, No. 5:10-cr-00236-
D-1 (E.D.N.C. Dec. 29, 2020). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
