UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff – Appellee,
v.
CRAIG A. MURPHY,
Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of Virginia, at Richmond. Robert E. Payne, Senior
District Judge. (3:96-cr-00066-REP-17)
Submitted: August 29, 2011 Decided: September 13, 2011
Before MOTZ and DAVIS, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior
Circuit Judge.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Craig A. Murphy, Appellant Pro Se. David Novak, OFFICE OF THE
UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Craig A. Murphy appeals the district court’s order
denying his motions to reduce his sentence under 18 U.S.C.
§ 3582(c) (2006) and pursuant to the All Writs Act. We have
reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly,
we affirm substantially for the reasons stated by the district
court. United States v. Murphy, No. 3:96-cr-00066-REP-17 (E.D.
Va. Apr. 7, 2011). We have reviewed Murphy’s challenge to his
sentence under the All Writs Act and conclude that this
extraordinary remedy is not available in this instance. See
United States v. Carlisle, 517 U.S. 416, 429 (1996); United
States v. Torres, 282 F.3d 1241, 1245 (10th Cir. 2002).
Accordingly, the district court properly denied Murphy’s motion
for that relief. Finally, 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
