PER CURIAM:

     Donald Wardrick seeks to appeal the district court’s order

denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp.

2001).   We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

opinion and find no reversible error.         Accordingly, we deny a

certificate   of   appealability   and   dismiss   the   appeal   on   the

reasoning of the district court.       United States v. Wardrick, Nos.

CR-95-294; CA-99-3381-PJM (D. Md. filed Aug. 1, 2001 & entered

Aug. 3, 2001).     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.




                                                              DISMISSED
