PER CURIAM:

            In appeal No. 07-7410, Marion Wayne Jordan seeks to

appeal the district court’s order denying relief on his 28 U.S.C.

§ 2255 (2000) motion.   In appeal No. 07-7728, David Michael Jordan

filed a motion for a certificate of appealability seeking to appeal

the district court’s order denying relief on his § 2255 motion.

The district court’s orders are not appealable unless a circuit

justice or judge issues a certificate of appealability.     28 U.S.C.

§ 2253(c)(1) (2000). A certificate of appealability will not issue

absent “a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional

right.”    28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2) (2000).   A prisoner satisfies this

standard by demonstrating that reasonable jurists would find that

any assessment of the constitutional claims by the district court

is debatable or wrong and that any dispositive procedural ruling by

the district court is likewise debatable.     Miller-El v. Cockrell,

537 U.S. 322, 336-38 (2003); Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484

(2000); Rose v. Lee, 252 F.3d 676, 683-84 (4th Cir. 2001).    We have

independently reviewed the records and conclude that neither Marion

Wayne Jordan nor David Michael Jordan has made the requisite

showing.   Accordingly, we deny David Michael Jordan’s motion for a

certificate of appealability, deny a certificate of appealability

in No. 07-7410, and dismiss the appeals.       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
