2                      UNITED STATES v. BAILEY

                              OPINION

PER CURIAM:

   Jerry Allen Bailey seeks to appeal the district court’s order dismiss-
ing without prejudice his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255
(West Supp. 2000). We note that Bailey’s prior § 2255 motion, filed
before he was sentenced, does not trigger the requirement of authori-
zation from this court to file a second or successive 28 U.S.C. § 2255
motion. See id.; See O’Connor v. United States, 133 F.3d 548, 550
(7th Cir. 1998). Accordingly, we grant a certificate of appealability
and vacate the district court’s order requiring authorization from this
court for Bailey’s instant § 2255 motion. The case is remanded for
further proceedings not inconsistent with this opinion. We dispense
with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are ade-
quately presented in the materials before the court and argument
would not aid the decisional process.
