PER CURIAM:

      Thomas       Walker    LaBuwi,    II,      appeals     the   district       court’s

orders denying his petition for a writ of error audita querela

as   an    unauthorized       successive      motion      under    28   U.S.C.    § 2255

(2012), and dismissing his Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion for

reconsideration.         After review, we affirm the district court’s

order     denying    LaBuwi’s     petition        for    audita    querela    for      the

reasons stated by the district court.                    United States v. LaBuwi,

No. 7:00-cr-00078-F-8 (E.D.N.C. May 7, 2013).

      To     the     extent     that    audita          querela    petition       is    an

unauthorized successive § 2255 motion, we deny LaBuwi’s motion

for a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal.                             See

Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484-85 (2000).                           We conclude

that LaBuwi’s Rule 60(b) motion was not a successive § 2255

motion, see United States v. Winestock, 340 F.3d 200, 207 (4th

Cir. 2003) (“[A] motion seeking a remedy for some defect in the

collateral      review      process    will      generally    be    deemed    a    proper

motion     to   reconsider.”),         but    conclude       the   district       court’s

denial of the motion does not warrant full review after grant of

a certificate of appealability.                  See Reid v. Angelone, 369 F.3d

363, 369 (4th Cir. 2004), abrogated on other grounds by United

States v. McRae, __ F.3d __, __, No. 13-6878, 2015 WL 4190665,

at *6 n.7 (4th Cir. July 13, 2015).



                                             2
     Accordingly, we affirm in part and dismiss in part.             We

dispense   with   oral   argument   because   the   facts   and   legal

contentions are adequately presented in the material before this

court and argument will not aid the decisional process.



                                                    AFFIRMED IN PART;
                                                    DISMISSED IN PART
