PER CURIAM:
Philip Kent Finley seeks to appeal the district court’s order
denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994 &
Supp. 1998). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s
opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a cer-
tificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning
of the district court. United States v. Finley, Nos. CR-97-2; CA-
98-81-2 (N.D.W. Va. July 31, 1998). 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
