October 14, 1996
Before JONES, DeMOSS and PARKER, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Aldolphus Wilson, #22996-034, appeals from the district
court’s denial of his motion to vacate his sentence pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 2255. Wilson argues that he received ineffective
assistance of counsel because his trial attorney failed to inform
him fully of his appellate rights. We have reviewed the record
and the briefs of the parties and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons adopted by the district
court. See United States v. Wilson, No. 94-528-J (E.D. La. Jan.
*
Pursuant to Local Rule 47.5, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent
except under the limited circumstances set forth in Local Rule
47.5.4.
No. 96-30114
- 2 -
31, 1996). Wilson also argues that the district court erred by
denying his motion to amend his § 2255 motion to add a claim
based upon the double jeopardy clause. Because Wilson’s double
jeopardy claim is foreclosed by the Supreme Court’s decision in
United States v. Usery, 116 S. Ct. 2134 (1996), the district
court’s judgment denying his motion to amend his § 2255 motion to
add the claim is affirmed.
AFFIRMED.
