PER CURIAM:
John Gerald Gerant appeals the district court’s order granting
in part and denying in part his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. §
2255 (West Supp. 1999). We have reviewed the record and the dis-
trict court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly,
we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss on the reasoning
of the district court. United States v. Gerant, Nos. CR-91-126-H;
CA-97-1181-H (D. Md. Sept. 9, 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
