Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Derrick Thomas seeks to appeal the district court’s order

affirming the magistrate judge’s denial of his motion to amend and

judgment adopting the magistrate judge’s recommendation denying his

motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994 & Supp. 1998).   We

have reviewed the record and the district court’s order and judg-

ment and find no reversible error.   Accordingly, we deny a certif-

icate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of

the district court.   See United States v. Thomas, Nos. CR-93-168;

CA-97-520 (M.D.N.C. Sept. 25, 1997; Oct. 9, 1998).     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
