Plaintiff - Appellee,

versus

GREGORY JONES, a/k/a Boo,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Baltimore. Benson E. Legg, Chief District Judge. (CR-95-234, CA-99-186-L)

Submitted: December 20, 2002 Decided: January 8, 2003

Before NIEMEYER, WILLIAMS, and KING, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Gregory Jones, Appellant Pro Se. Robert Reeves Harding, Assistant United States Attorney, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Gregory Jones seeks to appeal the district court’s orders

denying relief on his motion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000)

and denying reconsideration of that order. We have reviewed the

record and conclude for the reasons stated by the district court

that Jones has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a

constitutional right. See United States v. Jones, No. CR-95-234;

CA-99-186-L (D. Md. May 21, 2002; June 27, 2002). Accordingly, we

deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal. See 28

U.S.C. § 2253(c) (2000). 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
