Appellee.

See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Anthony Cliff Hallett seeks to appeal the district court’s

order denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994

& Supp. 1998).   We have reviewed the record and district court’s

opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and

find no reversible error.   Accordingly, we deny a certificate of

appealability and dismiss the appeal substantially on the reasoning

of the district court. See United States v. Hallett, Nos. CR-93-8;

CA-97-517-2 (M.D.N.C. June 22, 1998).      Further, we note that

Hallett’s claim regarding Federal Rule of Evidence 801(d)(2)(E) is

meritless, because the coconspirator testimony that he attacks was

not hearsay. Finally, Hallett waived appellate review of his claim

under 18 U.S.C. § 201(c)(2) (1994) by failing to raise this claim

in his objections to the magistrate judge’s recommendation.     See

Wright v. Collins, 766 F.2d 841, 845-46 (4th Cir. 1985).    We dis-

pense 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
