PER CURIAM:
Troy Pelts appeals the district court’s orders denying
his motion filed under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2006) for
reduction of sentence and denying his motion for an extension of
time to file an appeal. We have reviewed the record and Pelts’s
contentions regarding his § 3582(c)(2) motion and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated
by the district court. United States v. Pelts, No.
6:92-cr-00305-JAB-1 (M.D.N.C. July 13, 2009). Because we have
reviewed Pelts’s challenge to the denial of a sentence reduction
on the merits, we find his appeal of the denial of the motion
for an extension to be moot. United States v. Pelts, No.
6:92-cr-00305-JAB-1 (M.D.N.C. Jan. 8, 2010). Finally, 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.
AFFIRMED
