PER CURIAM:

     Theresa Ann Wilson seeks to appeal the magistrate judge’s

order denying her motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp.

1999).*    We have reviewed the record and the magistrate judge’s

opinion and find no reversible error.   Accordingly, we deny a cer-

tificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning

of the magistrate judge.   See Wilson v. Angelone, No. CA-98-1101-2

(E.D. Va. July 7, 1999).      We deny the pending motion for the

appointment of counsel and dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.




                                                         DISMISSED




     *
       The parties consented to the jurisdiction of the magistrate
judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c)(1) (1994).
