No. 19-7624

Decided: June 22, 2020

Before FLOYD, THACKER, and RUSHING, Circuit Judges.

Donald Wayne Jones, Appellant Pro Se. Jennifer P. May-Parker, Assistant United States Attorney, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Raleigh, North Carolina, for Appellee.

Donald Wayne Jones appeals the district court's order granting his motion, filed pursuant to the First Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391, 132 Stat. 5194, for a reduction of his sentence.^* We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Jones, No. 5:96-cr-00070-BR-1 (E.D.N.C. Oct. 24, 2019). 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.
