Hussein Dabbous, Appellant Pro Se. Kenneth E. Melson, 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Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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:
Hussein Dabbous seeks to appeal the district court’s orders
denying relief on his motion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000)
and denying his motion for reconsideration. We have reviewed the
record and conclude for the reasons stated by the district court
that Dabbous has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a
constitutional right. See United States v. Dabbous, No. CR-91-73
(E.D. Va. Oct. 2, 1996; Nov. 5, 1996). 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
