Assistant United States Attorney, Norfolk, Virginia, for Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

          Yagoub M. Mohamed appeals the district court’s order

denying his motion to reopen the time to file an appeal of his

motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000).   We have reviewed the record

and find no reversible error.     Accordingly, we affirm for the

reasons stated by the district court.       See United States v.

Mohamed, Nos. CR-01-177; CA-03-58-3 (E.D. Va. Jan. 11, 2005).   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.



                                                          AFFIRMED
