Paul Morris Pinson, Appellant Pro Se. David Calhoun Stephens, Assistant United States Attorney, Greenville, South Carolina, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994 & Supp. 1997). We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion ac- cepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying Appellant's § 2255 motion, and we find no reversible error. Ac- cordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. United States v. Pinson, Nos. CR-94-720; CA-96-1431-21-6-21AK (D.S.C. Oct. 9, 1996). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten- tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process. DISMISSED 2
