Wendell L. Easley, Appellant Pro Se. Donald Ray Wolthuis, OFFICE
OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Roanoke, Virginia, for Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Appellant seeks to appeal from the district court’s orders de-

nying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994 & Supp.

1998), and denying his motions for reconsideration. We have re-

viewed the record and the district court’s opinion and orders and

find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of

appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the

district court. United States v. Easley, Nos. CR-93-63; CA-97-503-R

(July 18, Aug. 27, & Oct. 1, 1997). 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 deci-

sional process.




                                                         DISMISSED
