PER CURIAM:

             Tony Taylor appeals the district court’s order denying

relief     on   his     28    U.S.C.        § 2255    (2012)     motion.        Taylor’s

conviction became final in 2008, and he filed his § 2255 motion

in   2012.      Under    our       recent    decision     in    Whiteside     v.   United

States, __ F.3d __, 2014 WL 7245453 (4th Cir. Dec. 19, 2014) (en

banc),    Taylor’s      § 2255      motion     was    untimely.        We    accordingly

affirm.      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.

                                                                                AFFIRMED

                                              2
