Charles Jerome Adams, Appellant Pro Se. Jane Barrett Taylor, OFFICE
OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Columbia, South Carolina, for
Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Charles Jerome Adams appeals the district court’s order deny-

ing his motion for extension of time to file his 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255

(West 1994 & Supp. 1998) motion.       We have reviewed the record and

the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accord-

ingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the ap-

peal on the reasoning of the district court.      See United States v.

Adams, Nos. CR-91-291; CA-98-201-1-MC-6 (D.S.C. Nov. 4, 1998).      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
