PER CURIAM:

            Kenneth      Bronson      Hughes    appeals      the    district     court’s

order granting relief on his motion for reduction of sentence

filed pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2006), and its order

denying    relief       on     Hughes'    subsequently         filed      § 3582(c)(2)

motion.     We find no reversible error and we thus affirm both

orders for the reasons stated by the district court.                              United

States v. Hughes, No. 6:02-cr-70105-nkm-2 (W.D. Va. Sept. 2 &

19, 2008).      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
