PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying his

motion filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (1994), amended by Anti-
terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104-

132, 110 Stat. 1214. We have reviewed the record and the district

court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny

a certificate of appealability and dismiss on the reasoning of the

district court. Martin v. United States , Nos. CR-86-84-K; CA-96-
73-5 (N.D. W. Va.   May 29, 1996).   Appellant's motions for a cer-

tificate of probable cause and for appointment of counsel are

denied. 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
