Anthony Darnell McLean, Appellant Pro Se. William Edward
Fitzpatrick, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Alexandria,
Virginia, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Anthony D. McLean seeks to appeal the district court’s order
denying relief on his motion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000).
We have reviewed the record and conclude for the reasons stated by
the district court that McLean has not made a substantial showing
of the denial of a constitutional right. See United States v.
McLean, Nos. CR-00-116; CA-02-659-A (E.D. Va. filed May 31, 2002 &
entered June 5, 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
