William Shorter, Jr., Appellant Pro Se. Morris Rudolph Parker,
Jr., Assistant United States Attorney, Alexandria, Virginia, for
Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     William Shorter, Jr., filed an appeal on July 17, 2002, in a

district court case in which he challenges his sentence. The notice

of appeal does not identify an order from which he appeals. We have

examined the notice of appeal and the record in the district court

action and find no underlying order to review.

     We therefore dismiss the appeal. We deny all Shorter’s pending

motions. 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.




                                                           DISMISSED
