PER CURIAM:
Mark Watkins appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for sentence
modification under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A). We have reviewed the record and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we deny his pending motion and affirm the district court’s
order. See United States v. Watkins, No. 5:94-cr-00066-JPB-1 (N.D. W. Va. Jan. 6, 2025).
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.
