Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Patrice Behanzin Wilson 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 Wilson has not made a substantial

showing of the denial of a constitutional right. See United States

v. Wilson, Nos. CR-96-34-BR; CA-01-215-7-BR (E.D.N.C. Sept. 19,

2002).    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
