Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
Jerome Lemario Cunningham pled guilty, pursuant to a plea agreement, to one count of attempting to take and obtain currency by threatening with a firearm an employee of a convenience store, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1951 & 2 (2000); one count of carjacking, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2119 & 2 (2000); and one count of carrying and use of a firearm during a crime of violence, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(l)(A)(iii) (2000), and was sentenced to concurrent terms of seventy months' imprisonment, followed by a 120 month consecutive sentence. Cunningham now appeals his sentence.
On appeal, Cunningham asserts that the district court engaged in impermissible double counting by adding a two point enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 2B3.1(b)(5) to Cunningham's base offense level because the offense involved carjacking. Whether impermissible double counting occurred is a legal issue that is reviewed de novo. United States v. Rohwedder, 243 F.3d 423, 426-27 (8th Cir.2001). Double counting is permissible under the sentencing guidelines except where it is expressly prohibited. United States v. Reevey, 364 F.3d 151, 158 (4th Cir.2004)
In determining the offense level, the district court committed no double counting error by adding two levels pursuant to U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual § 2B3.1 (b)(5) (2004). See United States v. Naves, 252 F.3d 1166 (11th Cir.2001). Cunningham has not otherwise shown that his sentence is unreasonable.
We therefore affirm the judgment of the district court. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED.
