PER CURIAM:
Michael James Taylor appeals the district court’s order
denying his motion for reduction of sentence, 18 U.S.C.
§ 3582(c) (2012). We have reviewed the record and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated
by the district court. United States v. Taylor, No. 2:11-cr-
00022-MR-DLH-10 (W.D.N.C. Jan. 19, 2016). We deny Taylor’s
motion to appoint 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
