Edward Lawrence Gholson, Appellant Pro Se. Damon A. King, OFFICE OF THE STAFF JUDGE ADVOCATE, Fort Monroe, Virginia; Helen F. Fahey, United States Attorney, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). 2 PER CURIAM: In these consolidated appeals, Appellant Gholson appeals the district court’s orders denying his motions filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (West Supp. 1999) challenging his 1998 guilty plea and sentence and his 1998 supervised release revocation. We have re- viewed the record and the district court’s opinions and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny certificates of appealabil- ity and dismiss on the reasoning of the district court. See United States v. Gholson, Nos. CR-93-53-4; CA-98-109-4 (E.D. Va. Oct. 18, 1999); United States v. Gholson, Nos. CR-97-72-4; CA-98-110-4 (E.D. Va. Oct. 18, 1999). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate- rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process. DISMISSED 3
