for Appellee.

See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Joseph Johnson, Jr., appeals from the district court’s order

denying his motion to dismiss the indictment for lack of personal

and subject matter jurisdiction.       We have reviewed the record and

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

ingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.        United

States v. Johnson, No. CR-96-180-A (E.D. Va. filed Mar. 15, 2001;

entered Mar. 20, 2001). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.




                                                              AFFIRMED
