v.

MICHAEL ROBERT FEATHERSTUN, a/k/a Big Country, a/k/a Mike,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Alexandria. James C. Cacheris, Senior District Judge. (1:05-cr-00021-JCC-3)

Submitted: May 18, 2009 Decided: May 20, 2009

Before WILKINSON, MICHAEL, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Michael Robert Featherstun, Appellant Pro Se. Rebeca Hidalgo Bellows, Assistant United States Attorney, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Michael Featherstun appeals the district court’s order

denying his motion for an extension of time in which to file a

28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2008) motion. Our review of the

record discloses no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm.

We do so without prejudice to Featherstun’s right to file an

initial § 2255 motion and an opportunity to establish a basis

for equitable tolling. We express no opinion, however, on his

ability to do so. 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.

AFFIRMED
