PER CURIAM:

     Forrest Stephen Black 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 dis-

trict court. See United States v. Black, Nos. CR-90-277; CA-01-41-

1 (M.D.N.C. July 23, 2001).    We further deny leave to proceed on

appeal in forma pauperis and dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

                                                          DISMISSED
