                             No. 97-6307



UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

                                             Plaintiff - Appellee,

          versus

                                            Defendant - Appellant.

trict of North Carolina, at Raleigh. Terrence W. Boyle, District
Judge. (CR-94-37-BO, CA-96-803-5-BO)


Submitted:   June 19, 1997                 Decided:   June 30, 1997


Before WILKINS and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior
Circuit Judge.

William Deago Sales, Appellant Pro Se. Bruce Charles Johnson,
OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Raleigh, North Carolina, for
Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's orders denying

his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994 & Supp. 1997),

and denying his motion for reconsideration. We have reviewed the

record and the district court's opinions and find no reversible

error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and
dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. United
States v. Sales, Nos. CR-94-37-BO; CA-96-803-5-BO (E.D.N.C. Nov.

19, 1996; Feb. 10, 1997). We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.




                                                         DISMISSED
