PER CURIAM:
Patrice Wilson petitions this Court for rehearing and rehear-
ing en banc on the ground that this Court’s decision in United
States v. Wilson, No. 00-7525 (4th Cir. May 23, 2001), reviewed
matters decided by the district court in an order issued in
September 13, 2000, which the district court later abrogated in an
order entered on December 22, 2000. We grant Wilson’s petition for
rehearing and modify our May 23, 2001, decision to rescind our con-
clusion that the district court properly construed Wilson’s motion
for reconsideration as a motion filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C.A. §
2255 (West Supp. 2000). Prior to the issuance of our decision, the
district court granted in part Wilson’s motion for reconsideration
on the ground that his Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion should not have
been construed as a motion under § 2255. The district court ulti-
mately denied Wilson's Rule 60(b) motion on the ground that Rule
60(b) cannot be used to collaterally attack a criminal judgment.
See United States v. Mosavi, 138 F.3d 1365, 1366 (11th Cir. 1998).
We affirm the district court's construction of Wilson's motion and
the subsequent denial of that motion on the reasoning contained in
the district court's December 22, 2000, order. See Wilson v. United
States, No. 7:96-CR-34-BR1 (E.D.N.C. Dec. 22, 2000).
AFFIRMED
