Darrell L. Padgett, Appellant Pro Se. Michael Lee Keller, OFFICE
OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Charleston, West Virginia, for
Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Darrell L. Padgett seeks to appeal the district court’s order
denying his motion to reopen his 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp.
2000) motion. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s
opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of
appealability, deny Padgett’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis,
and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. See
United States v. Padgett, No. CR-91-166; CA-94-377-1 (S.D.W. Va.
Nov. 21, 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
