See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying his

28 U.S.C. § 2255 (1988) motion alleging that he was denied the

right to appeal his conviction and sentence. We have reviewed the

record and the district court's opinion and find no reversible

error. We note that neither the district court nor this court has
jurisdiction to extend the appeal period beyond the time limits set

forth in Fed. R. App. R. 4(b), and, in any event, Appellant waived

his right to appeal his conviction and sentence in his plea agree-

ment. Accordingly, we affirm substantially on the reasoning of the
district court. United States v. Hudson, Nos. CR-91-363-A; CA-95-
338-AM (E.D. Va. Nov. 1, 1995). 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 deci-
sional process.
