United States Attorney, Charlotte, North Carolina, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Tyrone Sifford 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. See United States v. Sifford, Nos. CR-96-134-V;
CA-00-242 (W.D.N.C. filed Nov. 26, 2001; entered Nov. 28, 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
