    court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny
    a certificate of appealability and dismiss on the reasoning of the
    district court. United States v. Brown, Nos. CR-91-250-WMN; CA-953387-WMN (D. Md. May 9, 1996). We dispense with oral argument

    the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
