See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the district court's order denying his mo-

tion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (1994), amended by Antiterrorism
and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104-132, 110

Stat. 1214. We have reviewed the record and the district court's

opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny the

motion for discovery to supplement the record and affirm on the

reasoning of the district court. United States v. Kirk, Nos. CR-90-
107; CA-95-1057-5-F (E.D.N.C. Apr. 3, 1996). 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
