Nathaniel Watkins, Appellant Pro Se. Lawrence Joseph Leiser,
Marla Brooke Tusk, Assistant United States Attorneys,
Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Nathaniel Watkins appeals the district court’s orders
denying his motion to reduce his sentence pursuant to 18 U.S.C.
§ 3582(c)(2) (2006), and his motion for reconsideration. We
have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. United States v. Watkins, No. 1:90-cr-00260-CMH-2 (E.D.
Va. filed July 14, 2008 & entered July 15, 2008; Oct. 20, 2008);
see United States v. Dunphy, 551 F.3d 247, 251-53 (4th Cir.)
(rejecting defendant’s argument that United States v. Booker,
543 U.S. 220 (2005), should apply to § 3582 proceeding), cert.
denied, 129 S. Ct. 2401 (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
