PER CURIAM:

       Fencel O’Hara Martin 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.         Accordingly, we deny a certif-

icate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of

the district court.     See United States v. Martin, Nos. CR-88-76-N;

CA-97-410-2 (E.D. Va. Feb. 9, 1999).         We dispense with oral argu-

ment   because   the   facts   and   legal   contentions   are   adequately

presented in the materials before the court and argument would not

aid the decisional process.




                                                                  DISMISSED
