PER CURIAM:
Melvin Sumler appeals the district court’s order denying his
motion for a new trial based upon newly discovered evidence. We
have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find
no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of
the district court. See United States v. Sumler, No. CR-96-116
(E.D. Va. Sept. 26, 2000). We dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-
terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
