PER CURIAM: Albert Shaw Nelson appeals the district court’s order dismissing his motion to reconsider the denial of his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2012) 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. Nelson, No. 5:95-cr-00333-CMC-5 (D.S.C. Mar. 7, 2017). We 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. AFFIRMED 2
