PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying his
motion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (1988), as amended by Antiter-
rorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104-
132, 110 Stat. 1217. We have reviewed the record and the district
court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny
a certificate of appealability and dismiss on the reasoning of the
district court. United States v. McClure, Nos. CR-93-23-P; CA-96-
123-3-P (W.D.N.C. May 2, 1996). We decline to address the issues
Appellant raises for the first time on appeal. We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-
ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
