Rufus Houser, Appellant Pro Se. Paul Thomas Camilletti, OFFICE OF
THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Wheeling, West Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Rufus Houser seeks to appeal the district court’s order deny-

ing his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2000).

We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and

find no reversible error.   Accordingly, although we grant leave to

proceed in forma pauperis, we deny a certificate of appealability

and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.

United States v. Houser, Nos. CR-95-12; CA-98-55-3 (N.D.W. Va. June

27, 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
