Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

             Mitchell   Smalls    appeals   the    district    court’s    order

granting his motion filed pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2)

(2006), and reducing his sentence from life imprisonment to 405

months.      We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

error.      Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the

district court.     United States v. Smalls, No. 2:96-cr-00131-RBS-

2 (E.D. Va. Apr. 18, 2008); see United States v. Dunphy, 551

F.3d 247, 251 (4th Cir. 2009) (holding that § 3582 proceedings

“do   not    constitute   a    full    resentencing   of     the    defendant”)

(internal quotation marks and citation omitted).                    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
