Assistant United States Attorney, Greensboro, North Carolina, for
Appellee.

See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying

his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994 & Supp. 1997).

We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealabil-
ity and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.

United States v. Jackson, Nos. CR-91-57-G; CA-97-58-2 (M.D.N.C.
Sept. 16, 1997). 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
