Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

      Randolph Crocker, Jr., appeals the district court’s order

denying his motion for transcripts under 28 U.S.C. § 753(f) (1994)

and to proceed in forma pauperis.        We have reviewed the record and

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

Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and we

affirm on the reasoning of the district court.         See United States

v. Crocker, No. CR-95-52 (E.D. Va. May 24, 1999).        We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-

ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.




                                                                AFFIRMED
