(5:14-cr-00053-MFU-RSB-1) Submitted: May 17, 2018 Decided: May 21, 2018 Before KING and AGEE, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Scott Matthew Pierce, Appellant Pro Se. Erin Marie Harrigan Kulpa, Assistant United States Attorney, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Charlottesville, Virginia, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Scott Matthew Pierce appeals the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2012) motion for sentence reduction based on Amendment 782 to the Sentencing Guidelines. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Pierce’s motion for transcript and affirm for the reasons stated by the district court in the “Additional Comments” section of the order. See United States v. Pierce, No. 5:14-cr-00053-MFU-RSB-1 (W.D. Va. Mar. 14, 2018). 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
