United States v. Pittman

UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 98-7818 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, versus DENNIS MACKEL PITTMAN, Defendant - Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern Dis- trict of North Carolina, at Raleigh. James C. Fox, District Judge. (CR-93-136-5-F, CA-97-327-5-F) Submitted: March 16, 1999 Decided: May 4, 1999 Before ERVIN and NIEMEYER, Circuit Judges, and HALL, Senior Circuit Judge. Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Robert Gregg Levitt, Denver, Colorado, for Appellant. Robert Edward Skiver, Assistant United States Attorney, Raleigh, North Carolina, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Dennis M. Pittman appeals 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 certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the dis- trict court. See United States v. Pittman, Nos. CR-93-136-5-F; CA- 97-327-5-F (E.D.N.C. Oct. 6, 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 2
