PER CURIAM:
Vegas Devon Smith appeals the district court’s order denying his motion seeking a
sentence modification under § 404(b) of the First Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391,
132 Stat. 5194. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly,
we affirm the district court’s order. 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
