Ricardo Bernard Smith, Appellant Pro Se. Robert Clifford Chesnut,
Assistant United States Attorney, Alexandria, Virginia, for
Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying

his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994 & Supp. 1997)

and motion under Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b). 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 the
appeal on the reasoning of the district court. United States v.
Smith, Nos. CR-89-372; CA-97-795-AM (E.D. Va. Sept. 10, 1997). 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
