PER CURIAM:

           Arthur A. Mitchell appeals the district court’s order

denying his motions for preparation of a transcript at Government

expense and an extension of time in which to file a 28 U.S.C.

§ 2255 (2000) motion.     We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by

the   district   court.      United    States   v.   Mitchell,   No.

9:03-cr-00590-SB (D.S.C. filed Oct. 9, 2007 & entered Oct. 10,

2007).   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
