Submitted: May 15, 2003 Decided: May 22, 2003

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Tina Louise Peele, Appellant Pro Se. Raymond Edward Patricco, Jr., Assistant United States Attorney, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Tina Louise Peele seeks to appeal the district court’s order

denying relief on her motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000). We have

independently reviewed the record and conclude that Peele has not

made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.

See Miller-El v. Cockrell, U.S. , 123 S. Ct. 1029 (2003).

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
