PER CURIAM:
Tarus Owens appeals the district court’s order denying his
motion filed under 18 U.S.C.A. § 3582 (West Supp. 2001) and con-
strued as a 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2001) motion. We have
reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appeal-
ability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district
court. See United States v. Owens, No. CR-97-150 (E.D. Va. Apr.
12, 2001). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and
legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before
the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
