PER CURIAM:

                 Keith D. Wilson seeks to appeal the district court’s

order denying relief on his Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion for

reconsideration of the district court’s order denying relief on

his    28    U.S.C.          § 2254    (2006)           petition.           The     order     is     not

appealable         unless        a     circuit          justice        or     judge         issues     a

certificate of appealability.                    28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(1)(A) (2006);

Reid    v.       Angelone,       369    F.3d     363,          369    (4th    Cir.       2004).        A

certificate           of      appealability              will        not     issue       absent       “a

substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.”

28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2) (2006).                          When the district court denies

relief      on    the      merits,     a   prisoner           satisfies       this      standard      by

demonstrating           that     reasonable             jurists       would       find      that     the

district         court’s      assessment        of       the    constitutional              claims    is

debatable        or     wrong.         Slack    v.       McDaniel,          529    U.S.      473,    484

(2000); see Miller-El v. Cockrell, 537 U.S. 322, 336-38 (2003).

When the district court denies relief on procedural grounds, the

prisoner must demonstrate both that the dispositive procedural

ruling      is    debatable,         and     that       the    motion       states      a   debatable

claim of the denial of a constitutional right.                                    Slack, 529 U.S.

at    484-85.           We    have     independently            reviewed          the    record      and

conclude         that      Wilson      has     not       made        the    requisite        showing.

Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability, deny leave

to    proceed      in      forma      pauperis,         and     dismiss       the       appeal.       We

                                                    2
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.



                                                                        DISMISSED
