Petitioner-Appellant John Andrew Graves appeals from an order dated March 11, 1995, of the United States District Court for the Northern District of New York that denied his petition for a writ of habeas corpus brought pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255.  Graves had previously pled guilty to conspiring to transport and receive stolen goods through interstate commerce in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 371.  We affirm substantially for the reasons stated in the memorandum decision and order of the district court.  See Graves v. United States, 878 F.Supp. 409 (N.D.N.Y.1995).  We add only that the district court was fully justified in declining to hold an evidentiary hearing on Graves' petition because "the motion and the files and records of the case conclusively show that the prisoner is entitled to no relief." § 2255.
