MEMORANDUM*


2
Federal prisoner Alberto Negron appeals pro se the district court's denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion challenging his 1990 conviction and 121 month sentence for possession and distribution of cocaine.  Negron contends his conviction should be vacated because his apartment was searched in violation of his Fourth Amendment rights, the district court allowed his counsel to have a conflict of interest, and his counsel was ineffective for failing to raise all potential issues in his prior appeal.1  We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 and affirm.


3
The district court properly denied Negron's motion because the record indicates there was no conflict of interest, Negron's counsel was not ineffective on appeal, and Negron is precluded from challenging his search since he failed to raise the issue in his prior appeal.  See Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668 (1984);  Bonin v. Calderon, 59 F.3d 815 (9th Cir.1995), cert. denied, 116 S.Ct. 977 (1996);  United States v. Hearst, 638 F.2d 1190 (9th Cir.1980), cert. denied, 451 U.S. 938 (1981).


4
AFFIRMED.



**
 The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument.  Fed. R.App. P. 34(a);  9th Cir.  R. 34-4.  Accordingly, Negron's request for oral argument and his motion for a polygraph examination are denied
