Submitted: July 10, 2009 Decided: August 17, 2009

Before NIEMEYER, KING, and AGEE, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Matthew A. Victor, VICTOR VICTOR & HELGOE LLP, Charleston, West Virginia, for Appellant. Charles T. Miller, United States Attorney, Miller Bushong, Assistant United States Attorney, Beckley, West Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Shawn Dewayne Rucker appeals the district court’s

order revoking his supervised release, rejecting his claim that

he was entitled to a two-level reduction in his offense level

based upon the amendments to the crack cocaine sentencing

guidelines, and imposing a twenty-one-month sentence upon

revocation of supervised release. We have reviewed the record

and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the

reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Rucker,

No. 5:03-cr-00097-1 (S.D.W. Va. July 15, 2008); see also United

States v. Forman, 553 F.3d 585, 588-89 (7th Cir.), cert. denied,

129 S. Ct. 1924 (2009). 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
