PER CURIAM:
Dale Lewis Gibson seeks to appeal the district court’s order
denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp.
2001). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opin-
ion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Gibson’s
motion to hold this appeal in abeyance pending the district court’s
action on his motion for a certificate of appealability, deny a
certificate of appealability, and dismiss the appeal on the rea-
soning of the district court. See United States v. Gibson, Nos.
CR-98-249-4; CA-01-77-1 (W.D.N.C. May 15, 2001). We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-
ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
