PER CURIAM:

     Robert Lee Burris appeals the district court's order denying

relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West   Supp.

1999).   We have reviewed the record and the district court's opin-

ion and find no reversible error.    Accordingly, we affirm on the

reasoning of the district court. See United States v. Burris, Nos.

CR-93-240; CA-98-516-3-P (W.D.N.C. Sept. 29, 1999).    We dispense

with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are ade-

quately presented in the materials before the court and argument

would not aid the decisional process.




                                                          AFFIRMED
