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. 1998),
and denying Appellant’s 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 appeal-
ability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district
court. United States v. Bynum, Nos. CR-90-191, CA-96-3814-WMN (D.
Md. May 14, 1997). 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
*
Upon our review of the record, we discovered that
Appellant’s Judgment and Commitment Order erroneously reflects that
he was convicted of “possession” of a firearm, in violation of 18
U.S.C.A. § 924(c)(1) (West Supp. 1998). Because Appellant pled
guilty to “using and carrying” a firearm during a drug trafficking
offense, as provided in § 924(c)(1), either party may move the
district court, under Fed. R. Crim. P. 36, to correct this
typographical error.
