Lewis Dean Gibson, Appellant Pro Se. Thomas Richard Ascik, OFFICE
OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Asheville, North Carolina, for
Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Lewis Dean Gibson appeals the district court’s order denying

his post-trial motion to dismiss the indictment under Fed. R. Crim.

P. 12(b)(2).   We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

error.     Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the

district   court.   See   United   States   v.   Gibson,   No.   CR-97-310

(W.D.N.C. filed Mar. 6, 2003 & entered Mar. 25, 2003).       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.




                                                                  AFFIRMED




                                   2
