See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Robert Daniel Helms appeals the district court’s order dis-
missing his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp.
2000). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opin-
ion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certif-
icate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of
the district court. See United States v. Helms, Nos. CR-99-4; CA-
00-575-3 (W.D.N.C. filed Dec. 6, 2000; entered Dec. 12, 2000). 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.
DISMISSED
