PER CURIAM:
Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying
relief on his motion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (1994), 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 affirm on the reasoning
of the district court. United States v. Manning, Nos. CR-94-235-A;
CA-95-1695-A (E.D. Va. Mar. 5, 1996). We dispense with oral argu-
ment because the facts and legal contentions are adequately pre-
sented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid
the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
