Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying his
motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (1988), amended by Antiterrorism and
Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104-132, 110 Stat.
1214. 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. Booker, No. CR-93-81-N; CA-96-232 (E.D. Va. May
15, 1996). 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
