UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff - Appellee, v. Tremell Rashaud MCKINNEY, a/k/a Truth, Defendant - Appellant.
Tremell Rashaud McKinney appeals the district court's order denying relief on his motion seeking a sentence reduction pursuant to the First Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391, § 404, 132 Stat. 5194, 5222. We have reviewed the record and find that the court did not abuse its discretion in declining to reduce McKinney's sentence. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. United States v. McKinney, No. 7:10-cr-00063-D-1 (E.D.N.C. May 7, 2020). We deny McKinney's motion for the appointment of counsel. 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
PER CURIAM:
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
