See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Mario Sorto seeks to appeal the district court’s orders deny-

ing his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 1999),

and denying his motion for reconsideration.   We have reviewed the

record and the district court’s opinions and find no reversible

error.     Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and

dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.     See

United States v. Sorto, Nos. CR-96-251-A; CA-99-854-AM (E.D. Va.

July 1 & Sept. 9, 1999).    We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.




                                                         DISMISSED
