UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff - Appellee,

versus

PRINCE LINTON,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of West Virginia, at Clarksburg. Irene M. Keeley, Chief District Judge. (CR-97-22)

Submitted: March 26, 2002 Decided: May 14, 2002

Before WILKINS, MICHAEL, and KING, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Prince Linton, Appellant Pro Se. Robert H. McWilliams, Jr., Assistant United States Attorney, Wheeling, West Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Prince Linton appeals an order of the district court denying

his motion for reconsideration of the court’s order of August 17,

2001, which denied his request for an inquiry into the procedure

used to test drug evidence in his case and for independent

retesting of the drug evidence. We have reviewed the record and the

district court’s order and find no reversible error. Accordingly,

we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. United States v.

Linton, No. CR-97-22 (N.D.W. Va. Sept. 24, 2001). 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
