Richard Dwight Bernard, Appellant Pro Se. Olivia L. Norman, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Richard Dwight Bernard appeals the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) motion for reduction of sentence. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Bernard, No. 3:03-cr-00420-JRS-3 (E.D. Va. Jan. 30, 2017). We deny Bernard’s motion for an enlargement of time to appeal as moot and dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
