PER CURIAM:

               Mark Wayne Thibeau, a federal prisoner, seeks to appeal

the district court order denying his Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion

to reconsider his underlying 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000) motion.                       An

appeal may not be taken from the final order in a § 2255 proceeding

unless    a    circuit    justice    or    judge    issues    a   certificate      of

appealability.       28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(1) (2000); Reid v. Angelone,

369 F.3d 363, 369 (4th Cir. 2004).              A certificate of appealability

will not issue absent “a substantial showing of the denial of a

constitutional right.”          28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2) (2000).         A prisoner

satisfies this standard by demonstrating that reasonable jurists

would find that his constitutional claims are debatable and that

any dispositive procedural rulings by the district court are also

debatable or wrong.        See Miller-El v. Cockrell, 537 U.S. 322, 336

(2003); Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484 (2000); Rose v. Lee,

252 F.3d 676, 683 (4th Cir. 2001).              We have independently reviewed

the record and conclude that Thibeau has not made the requisite

showing.       Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and

dismiss the appeal.            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.

                                                                           DISMISSED
