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
