Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
George Lynch, Appellant Pro Se. Morris Rudolph Parker, Jr.,
Assistant United States Attorney, Alexandria, Virginia, for
Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
George Lynch 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 Lynch has not made a substantial showing of
the denial of a constitutional right. See United States v. Lynch,
Nos. CR-00-103; CA-02-764-A (E.D. Va. Aug. 29, 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
