See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Spencer Douglas Snipes seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying relief on his 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2001) motion, his motion for reduction of sentence under 18 U.S.C.A. § 3582(c)(2) (West 2000), and his motions for evidentiary hearings and appointment of counsel.

Accord- ingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. United States v. Snipes, Nos. CR-93-124; CA-01-85-2 (E.D.
