PER CURIAM:
Joseph Butler appeals the district court’s order denying his Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b)
motion for relief from the court’s prior order denying his motion for a sentence reduction
and denying Butler’s motion to appoint counsel. We have reviewed the record and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. United
States v. Butler, No. 4:05-cr-00037-RBS-FBS-7 (E.D. Va. Jan. 8, 2020). 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
