Robert Solomon Davis, Appellant Pro Se. Craig Jon Jacobsen, I,
Assistant  United  States   Attorney, Roanoke,  Virginia,  for
Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

          Robert      Solomon   Davis       appeals   the   district   court’s

order denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2006) motion for a

sentence reduction.       We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error. *    Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated

by the district court.          United States v. Davis, No. 6:09-cr-

00007-NKM-3 (W.D. Va. Jan. 5, 2012).                  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

     *
       To the extent Davis asks us to reconsider precedent
holding that the Fair Sentencing Act has no retroactive effect
for those sentenced prior to its effective date, we decline to
do so. See United States v. Rivers, 595 F.3d 558, 564 n.3 (4th
Cir. 2010) (“A panel of this court cannot overrule, explicitly
or implicitly, the precedent set by a prior panel of this
court.” (internal quotation marks and alteration omitted)).
