See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

       Albert Shaw Nelson seeks to appeal the district court’s orders

denying relief on his motion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000)

and denying his motion under Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e).            We have

reviewed the record and conclude substantially for the reasons

stated by the district court that Nelson has not made a substantial

showing of the denial of a constitutional right. See United States

v. Nelson, Nos. CR-95-333; CA-99-4168-5-22 (D.S.C. Aug 1, 2001;

Oct. 1, 2001); Boeckenhaupt v. United States, 537 F.2d 1182, 1183

(4th    Cir.   1976).    Accordingly,   we   deny   a   certificate   of

appealability and dismiss the appeal.        See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)

(2000). 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
