STATES ATTORNEY, Roanoke, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

       Edgar Nelson Pitts appeals from the district court’s order granting his motion for a

sentence reduction under Section 404 of the First Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391,

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. Pitts, No.

6:94-cr-70068-EKD-2 (W.D. Va. Apr. 6, 2020). 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

       *
         Although the district court granted Pitts’ motion, the reduction granted by the court
did not reduce his sentence to the full extent he requested.

                                              2
