Wainsworth Marcellus Hall, Appellant Pro Se. Fernando Groene,
OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Norfolk, Virginia, for
Appellee.

PER CURIAM:

     Wainsworth Marcellus Hall seeks to appeal the district court’s

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

1999).    We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opin-

ion and find no reversible error.     Hall is entitled to no relief

under Richardson v. United States, ___ U.S. ___, 67 U.S.L.W. 3682

(June 1, 1999) (No. 97-8629).     The district court instructed the

jury at trial that it must unanimously agree on which acts con-

stituted the continuing series of violations under 21 U.S.C.A.

§ 848 (West Supp. 1999).    See United States v. Hall, 93 F.3d 126,

129 (4th Cir. 1996).   Therefore, we deny Hall’s motions to stay the

appeal.    We deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the

appeal on the reasoning of the district court.    See United States

v. Hall, Nos. CR-93-162; CA-98-215 (E.D. Va. Dec. 3, 1998).      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
