PER CURIAM:

     Kenneth Eugene Coffey seeks to appeal the district court’s

order dismissing as untimely his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A.

§ 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 1999).       We have reviewed the record and

the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accord-

ingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the ap-

peal on the reasoning of the district court.     See Coffey v. Walker,

No. CA-98-715-3-V (W.D.N.C. Sept. 29, 1999). 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
