    CHARLES EDWARD FORRESTER, JR.,


    Petitioner - Appellant,
    versus
    GEORGE SNYDER, Warden; UNITED STATES PAROLE
    COMMISSION,
    Respondents - Appellees.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
    District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. Louise W. Flanagan, Chief
    District Judge. (CA-04-252-5)

    Submitted:

    July 27, 2005

    Decided:

    August 4, 2005

    Before KING, GREGORY, and SHEDD, Circuit Judges.

    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

    Charles Edward Forrester, Jr., Appellant Pro Se. Rudolf A. Renfer,


    Jr., Assistant United States Attorney, Raleigh, North Carolina, for
    Appellees.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Charles Edward Forrester, Jr., a state prisoner, seeks to
    appeal the district courts orders denying relief on his petition
    filed under 28 U.S.C. 2241 (2000).
    unless

    circuit

    appealability.

    justice

    or

    The orders are not appealable

    judge

    issues

    28 U.S.C. 2253(c)(1) (2000).

    certificate

    of

    A certificate of

    appealability will not issue absent a substantial showing of the


    denial of a constitutional right.

    28 U.S.C. 2253(c)(2) (2000).

    A prisoner satisfies this standard by demonstrating that reasonable


    jurists would find both that the district courts assessment of the
    constitutional

    claims

    is

    debatable

    or

    wrong

    and

    that

    any

    dispositive procedural rulings by the district court are also


    debatable or wrong.

    (2003); Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484 (2000); Rose v. Lee,
    252 F.3d 676, 683-84 (4th Cir. 2001).

    We have independently

    reviewed the record and conclude that Forrester has not made the
    requisite

    showing.

    Accordingly,

    we

    deny

    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
