    The United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit affirmed the district court's denial of Duane Hinton's motion to vacate, set aside or correct his sentence under 28 U.S.C. § 2255. The appellate court reviewed the record and found no reversible error in the district court's acceptance of the magistrate judge's recommendation. The appellate court thus affirmed the district court's ruling based on the reasoning in that court's opinion.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

    PER CURIAM:
    Appellant appeals the district court's order denying his
    motion filed under 28 U.S.C. 2255 (1994) (current version at 28
    U.S.C.A. 2255 (West 1994 & Supp. 1997)). We have reviewed the
    record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. United
    States v. Hinton, Nos. CR-91-136-G, CA-96-12-2 (M.D.N.C. Mar. 20,
    1997). See Lindh v. Murphy, 521 U.S. ___, 1997 WL 338568 (U.S. June
    23, 1997) (No. 96-6298). 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
