PER CURIAM:

     Appellant seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying

his motions filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (1994) and 28 U.S.C.

§ 1651 (1994) and the district court’s order denying Appellant’s

motion to issue a certificate of appealability. We have reviewed

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

error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and

dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. United

States v. Jay, Nos. CR-88-20-C; CR-88-21; CA-97-202-P (W.D.N.C. May

12 & July 21, 1998). We therefore dismiss Appellant’s appeal of the

district court’s order denying his motion to issue a certificate of

appealability as moot. We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

                                                         DISMISSED
