PER CURIAM:
Bobby Wayne Debnam appeals the district court’s judgment that
revoked his supervised release and sentenced him to fifty-one
months’ imprisonment. Debnam admitted he violated his term of
supervised release by being charged with possession with intent to
distribute cocaine. On appeal, Debnam does not dispute the
violation but asserts his fifty-one month term of imprisonment was
plainly unreasonable. We disagree. After being on supervised
release for only two months, Debnam was charged with engaging in
the very same criminal conduct for which he was convicted. The
district court imposed a sentence at the low end of the sentencing
guidelines range. We conclude the sentence was not plainly
unreasonable and affirm. We dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions of the parties are adequately
presented in the materials before the court and argument would not
aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
