OPINION

PER CURIAM:

1

Horace Oxendine appeals from the district court's order refusing relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (1988). Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.* United States v. Oxendine, Nos. CR-89-16-3-BR, CA-91-95-3-CIV-BR (E.D.N.C. Jan. 3, 1992). 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.

AFFIRMED

*

We also note that this § 2255 motion, which is Oxendine's third, could have been properly dismissed as an abuse of the writ for Oxendine's failure to raise this claim in his previous § 2255 motions. See 28 U.S.C. foll. § 2255, Rule 9(a)
