PER CURIAM:

      James Earl Walton appeals from the district court’s order denying his motion for a

reduction in sentence pursuant to Section 404 of the First Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No.

115-391, § 404, 132 Stat. 5194, 5222, and denying his motion to amend. We have reviewed

the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by

the district court. United States v. Walton, No. 2:07-cr-00017-BO-1 (E.D.N.C. Oct. 7,

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
