Appellee.

See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Denise C. Abdullah appeals the district court’s order denying
her motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2000). We
have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find
no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm substantially on the
reasoning of the district court. United States v. Abdullah, Nos.
CR-94-422-JFM; CA-00-2376-HNM (D. Md. Dec. 19, 2000). Additional-
ly, we recently held in United States v. Sanders, F.3d ,
2001 WL 369719 (4th Cir. Apr. 13, 2001) (No. 00-6281), that the new
rule announced in Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466 (2000), is
not retroactively applicable to cases on collateral review. Fur-
ther, Abdullah’s § 2255 motion was untimely with respect to all
three claims raised in her § 2255 motion. 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. The motion for appointment of counsel
is denied. The motion to supplement the informal brief is granted.
AFFIRMED
