OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Charlotte, North Carolina,
for Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     William Lewis Hinson appeals the district court’s order deny-

ing his “Motion to Quash Indictment and Dismiss Action for Lack of

Jurisdiction.” We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

opinion and find no reversible error.    Accordingly, we grant Hin-

son’s motion to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis and affirm on

the reasoning of the district court.    See United States v. Hinson,

No. CR-93-258-P (W.D.N.C. Jul. 21, 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.
