Oscar Aponte Rosario, Appellant Pro Se. Janet S. Reincke, OFFICE
OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Norfolk, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Oscar Aponte Rosario seeks to appeal the district court’s

order denying relief on his motion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255

(2000).     We have independently reviewed the record and conclude

that Rosario has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a

constitutional right. See Miller-El v. Cockrell,             U.S.      , 2003

WL 431659, at *10 (U.S. Feb. 25, 2003) (No. 01-7662). 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
