PER CURIAM:
Timothy Earl Brown appeals the district court’s order
declining to grant a downward sentencing departure, following this
Court’s limited remand. The sole contention Brown pursues on
appeal is that he was entitled to a new sentencing hearing upon
remand so that he could be present during resentencing and be given
an opportunity to allocute. We conclude that a new sentencing
hearing was unnecessary to decide the issue on remand.
Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order upon remand. 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
