PER CURIAM:

           Following a jury trial before a magistrate judge, Roland

Mays was convicted of forcibly assaulting, resisting, opposing,

impeding, intimidating, and interfering with a military police

officer, in violation of 18 U.S.C.A. § 111 (West Supp. 2005) (Count

1); communicating a threat, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 13 (2000),

assimilating N.C. Gen. Stat. § 14-277.1 (1993) (Count 3); and

resisting, delaying, or obstructing a public officer, in violation

of 18 U.S.C. § 13, assimilating N.C. Gen. Stat. § 14-223 (1993)

(Count 4). The magistrate judge sentenced Mays to twelve months on

Count 1, a consecutive four months on Count 3, and a concurrent

sixty days on Count 4.      Mays appealed to the district court,

challenging the magistrate judge's imposition of a consecutive

sentence on Count 3.   The district court affirmed Mays' sentence

and Mays timely appealed.   We find no error in the district court's

order affirming the sentence imposed by the magistrate judge.

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district

court.   See United States v. Mays, No. CR-05-30 (E.D.N.C. Apr. 1,

2005).   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
