Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Jerome Frederick Satterfield seeks to appeal the district

court’s order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge

and denying relief on his motion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255

(2000).   We have reviewed the record and conclude on the reasoning

of the district court that Satterfield has not made a substantial

showing of the denial of a constitutional right. See United States

v. Satterfield, Nos. CA-01-799-1; CR-99-131 (M.D.N.C. May 22,

2002).    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
