See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Amarildo Filsaime seeks to appeal the district court’s order

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

2000).   We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opin-

ion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find

no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appeal-

ability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district

court.    United States v. Filsaime, Nos. CR-96-212; CA-99-1101

(M.D.N.C. filed Aug. 17, 1999; entered Aug. 29, 2000). 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
