PER CURIAM:

     Roosevelt Cornell Sanders seeks to appeal the district court’s

order 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 Sanders has not made a substantial

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

v. Sanders, Nos. CR-94-631; CA-02-993-0-10 (D.S.C. filed August 2,

2002; entered Aug. 5, 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
