Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Appellant appeals from the magistrate judge's order denying

his motion for transcripts and his motion for appointment of coun-

sel.* We have reviewed the record and the magistrate judge's opin-
ion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the

reasoning of the magistrate judge. United States v. Washington,

No. CR-92-296-1-WS (M.D.N.C. May 22, 1995). 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




     *
       The magistrate judge was authorized to enter the order in
this matter. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(A) (1988).
