Rodney Lee Blackwell, Appellant Pro Se. Robert Michael Hamilton,
OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Greensboro, North Carolina,
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Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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).

We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion ac-

cepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no re-

versible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability
and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.

United States v. Blackwell, Nos. CR-94-115; CA-96-910-2 (M.D.N.C.
Feb. 20, 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
