Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying his

motion to correct an illegal sentence under former Fed. R. Crim. P.

35(a) (applicable to offenses committed before November 1, 1987).

We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion and

find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning
of the district court. United States v. Silvious, No. CR-86-80-R
(W.D. Va. Feb. 7, 1996). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
