PER CURIAM:

            Michael   Justin     Smith       appeals   the   district   court’s

order denying his self-styled “Motion to Defer Payment Schedule”

of his court-ordered criminal monetary penalties.                 Because the

district court was without authority to grant the relief sought

by Smith in his motion to defer, we affirm the district court’s

order.      See    United    States   v.      Smith,   No.   5:05-cr-00207-F-1

(E.D.N.C.   Nov.    22,     2010).    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
