PER CURIAM:

Patrick Furman Brown appeals the district court’s order granting his motion for a 

sentence reduction pursuant to the First Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391, § 404, 132 

Stat. 5194. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we 

affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Brown, No. 5:98-cr00282-MBS-1 (D.S.C. Nov. 5, 2019). 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.

AFFIRMED
