Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

       Sanford Martin Rucker, Jr., seeks to appeal the district

court’s order denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255

(West Supp. 2001).         We have reviewed the record and the district

court’s opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate

judge   and   find    no   reversible    error.     Accordingly,   we   deny   a

certificate    of    appealability      and   dismiss   the    appeal   on   the

reasoning of the district court. See United States v. Rucker, Nos.

CR-99-110; CA-01-557-1 (M.D.N.C. Dec. 19, 2001).              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
