Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Ryan Daniel Graves seeks to appeal the district court’s orders

denying relief on his motion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000),

and denying his motion to reconsider pursuant to Federal Rule of

Civil Procedure 59(e).   We have independently reviewed the record

and conclude that Graves has not made a substantial showing of the

denial of a constitutional right.    See Miller-El v. Cockrell, 123

S. Ct. 1029, 1039 (2003).   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
