Michael Vertoin Saunders, Appellant Pro Se. Lynne Ann Battaglia, United States Attorney, Baltimore, Maryland; Stuart A. Berman, As- sistant United States Attorney, Greenbelt, Maryland, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Michael Vertoin Saunders seeks to appeal the district court’s

order denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994

& Supp. 1998). We have reviewed the record and the district

court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny

a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the rea-

soning of the district court. See United States v. Saunders, Nos.

CR-96-204; CA-98-1493-DKC (D. Md. Feb. 9, 1999). We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-

ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED
