See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Forrest Stephen Black 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
opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of
appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the dis-
trict court. See United States v. Black, Nos. CR-90-277; CA-01-41-
1 (M.D.N.C. July 23, 2001). We further deny leave to proceed on
appeal in forma pauperis and dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-
terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
DISMISSED
