PER CURIAM:

       Windsor Warner Kessler, III appeals the district court’s orders denying his 28

U.S.C. § 2255 (2012) motion, his motion to reconsider, and his motion for a certificate of

appealability. By order, we granted a partial certificate of appealability and ordered

supplemental briefing on the issue of whether the district court abused its discretion in

declining to conduct an evidentiary hearing on Kessler’s claim that he was entitled to

equitable tolling of the habeas limitations period.         We have reviewed the record,

including the parties’ informal briefs following the issuance of the certificate of

appealability, and find no reversible error. Accordingly, as to the claim on which we

granted a certificate of appealability, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court.

United States v. Kessler, Nos. 1:11-cr-00434-MJG-1; 1:14-cv-01894-MJG (D. Md.

July 22, 2016; Aug. 5 & 24, 2016). We dismiss the claims on which we previously

denied a certificate of appealability, deny Kessler’s motion for appointment of counsel

and dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately

presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

                                                                      AFFIRMED IN PART;
                                                                      DISMISSED IN PART
