Appellee.

See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the district court's order denying her

motion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (1994) (current version at 28

U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994 & Supp. 1997)). We have reviewed the

record and the district court's opinion and find no reversible

error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district
court. United States v. Cooper, Nos. CR-92-62; CA-96-90-R (W.D. Va.
Jan. 13, 1997). See Lindh v. Murphy, 521 U.S. ___, 1997 WL 338568
(U.S. June 23, 1997) (No. 96-6298). 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 deci-
sional process.




                                                          AFFIRMED
