William R. Talley, Appellant Pro Se. Elizabeth Jean Howard, OFFICE
OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Greenville, South Carolina, for
Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
William R. Talley seeks to appeal the district court’s order
accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying
relief on his motion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000). We have
reviewed the record and conclude on the reasoning of the district
court that Talley has not made a substantial showing of the denial
of a constitutional right. See United States v. Talley, Nos. CR-
99-530; CA-01-2420-6-13 (D.S.C. filed July 25, 2002 & entered July
26, 2002). Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and
dismiss the appeal. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c) (2000). 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
