OPINION
PER CURIAM:

1
John Ernest Dean appeals from an order of the district court modifying his sentence pursuant to Dean's motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (1988).   The Government has moved to remand this case to the district court.   In accordance with our reasoning in United States v. Dean, No. 90-6916 (4th Cir.  May 22, 1991) (unpublished), we grant the Government's motion, vacate the district court's order and remand the case to the district court.   On remand, the district court should appoint counsel for Dean and conduct a new evidentiary hearing.   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.
