PER CURIAM:

Terry L. Langford appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for release pending sentencing. We review a district court’s order denying bail for clear error. See United States v. Williams, 753 F.2d 329 (4th Cir. 1985). The law has established a presumption in favor of detaining convicted defendants, which can be rebutted “by clear and convincing evidence that the [defendant] is not likely to flee or pose a danger to the safety of any other person or the community if released.” 18 U.S.C. § 3143 (2012). Applying that standard, we conclude that the evidence supports the district court’s conclusion that Langford was a flight risk. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. 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
