PER CURIAM:
Ronald William Hammond seeks to appeal the district court’s
orders denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994
& Supp. 1998), and declining to grant relief from the judgment
under Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b). We have reviewed the record and the
district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. According-
ly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal
on the reasoning of the district court. See United States v.
Hammond, Nos. CR-96-175-CCB; CA-97-4282-CCB (D. Md. Dec. 22, 1998).
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
