UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff - Appellee,

versus

LEROY ELLIS,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western Dis- trict of Virginia, at Roanoke. Jackson L. Kiser, Senior District Judge. (CR-94-36-D, CA-99-981)

Submitted: May 25, 2000 Decided: June 5, 2000

Before WILLIAMS, MICHAEL, and KING, Circuit Judge.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Leroy Ellis, Appellant Pro Se. Robert Paul Crouch, Jr., United States Attorney, Roanoke, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Leroy Ellis seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying

his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 1999). We

have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find

no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appeal-

ability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district

court. See United States v. Ellis, Nos. CR-94-36-D; CA-99-981 (W.D.

Va. Dec. 29, 1999). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

DISMISSED
