Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Rayed Fawzi Abed 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 and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. United States v. Abed, Nos. CR-97-24-R; CA-01-383- 7 (W.D. Va. Oct. 22, 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 2
