Hassan Genell Hines, Appellant Pro Se. Matthew Fesak, Thomas B. Murphy, Stephen Aubrey West, Assistant United States Attorneys, Michael Gordon James, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Raleigh, North Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Hassan Genell Hines was convicted by a federal jury of

several drug and firearm charges and in January 2009, the

district court sentenced Hines to a total of 480 months of

imprisonment. On direct appeal, this court affirmed the

judgment. United States v. Hines, 380 F. App’x 320 (4th Cir.

2010) (No. 09-4060). In January 2017, Hines filed a second

notice of appeal of the criminal judgment. However, because we

have previously affirmed this criminal judgment, we dismiss the

appeal as duplicative and untimely. We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately

presented in the materials before this court and argument would

not aid in the decisional process.

DISMISSED
