See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Johnny M. Brown seeks to appeal the district court’s order

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

We have reviewed the record and conclude for the reasons stated by

the district court that Brown has not made a substantial showing of

the denial of a constitutional right.      See United States v. Brown,

Nos. CR-94-27; CA-99-346-7 (W.D. Va. June 16, 2000).        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

                                    2
