Newton Cockerill, Appellant Pro Se. Jane Barrett Taylor, OFFICE OF
THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Newton Cockerill seeks to appeal the district court’s order
denying his Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) motion to alter or amend the
court’s judgment denying relief on his 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. Accord-
ingly, we deny Cockerill’s motion to stay the briefing schedule,
deny a certificate of appealability, and dismiss the appeal on the
reasoning of the district court. See United States v. Cockerill,
Nos. CR-98-524-DWS; CA-00-2914-3 (D.S.C. Feb. 9 & 12, 2001). 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
