UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

                                              Plaintiff - Appellee,

Edward Calloway, Appellant Pro Se. Laura Marie Everhart, Assistant
United States Attorney, Norfolk, Virginia, for Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the district court's order denying his

motion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (1994) (current version at 28

U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994 & Supp. 1997)). We have reviewed the

record and the district court's opinion and find no reversible

error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district
court. See Lindh v. Murphy, 521 U.S. ___, 1997 WL 338568 (U.S. June
23, 1997) (No. 96-6298); United States v. Calloway, Nos. CR-92-113;
CA-96-393-N (E.D. Va. Apr. 4, 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 deci-
sional process.




                                                          AFFIRMED
