PER CURIAM:

     Sean Smith Stevenson 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 accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and

find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Stevenson’s applica-

tion to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis, deny a certificate of

appealability, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the dis-

trict court. United States v. Stevenson, Nos. CR-93-244; CA-97-115-

2 (M.D.N.C. Nov. 10, 1997; Apr. 3, 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
