See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Willie Lee Strickland seeks to appeal the district court’s
order denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp.
1999). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opin-
ion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certifi-
cate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of
the district court. See United States v. Strickland, Nos. CR-94-
97-13-5-F; CA-97-948-5-F (E.D.N.C. Apr. 2, 1999). We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-
ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
