See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Robert Chaegon Kim appeals the district court’s orders denying

his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2000) and

denying his motion for reconsideration.   We have reviewed the rec-

ord and the district court’s orders and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we deny the motion for a certificate of appealability

and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.

United States v. Kim, Nos. CR-97-117-A; CA-00-1645-AM (E.D. Va.

Feb. 7, 2001; filed Mar. 9, 2001, entered Mar. 13, 2001).   We dis-

pense 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.




                                                         DISMISSED
