Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's orders denying
his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994 & Supp. 1997),
and denying his motion for reconsideration. 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 the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. United
States v. Brinkley, Nos. CR-91-131-P; CA-97-242-3-P (W.D.N.C. Apr.
30 and May 14, 1997). We dispense with oral argument because the
facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-
rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
DISMISSED
