PER CURIAM:
Dante Cornelius Boyce appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his
motion for 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 district
court did not abuse its discretion in declining to reduce Boyce’s sentence. Accordingly,
we affirm the district court’s order. United States v. Boyce, No. 4:10-cr-00092-D-1
(E.D.N.C. July 2, 2020). We deny Boyce’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
