PER CURIAM:
William Lamont Slate appeals a district court order
denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(B) (2012) motion and his
petition for a writ of mandamus. We have reviewed the record
and the district court’s order and affirm for the reasons of the
district court. United States v. Slate, No. 4:97-cr-00041-RBS-2
(E.D. Va. Feb. 5, 2014). We deny Slate’s motion for 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
