Roanoke, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Arthur H. Garrison 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 Garrison’s motion for a

certificate   of   appealability   and   dismiss   the   appeal   on   the

reasoning of the district court.       United States v. Garrison, Nos.

CR-97-83; CA-01-332-7 (W.D. Va. filed Jan. 10, 2002 & entered Jan.

11, 2002).    We grant Garrison’s motion to construe his memorandum

as support for his motion for a certificate of appealability and

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
