    Robert James Murphy appealed the district court's denial of his motion under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 to vacate, set aside, or correct his sentence. The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals reviewed the record and found no reversible error in the district court's acceptance of the magistrate judge's recommendation to deny the motion. The Fourth Circuit also denied Murphy's motion for reconsideration and dismissed the appeal, agreeing with the district court's reasoning. The Fourth Circuit determined that oral arguments would not aid in the decision.

    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS


    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

    No. 98-7796

    UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,


    Plaintiff - Appellee,
    versus
    ROBERT JAMES MURPHY,
    Defendant - Appellant.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina, at Greensboro. William L. Osteen, District Judge. (CR-93-68, CA-97-397-2)

    Submitted:

    April 15, 1998

    Decided:

    April 19, 1999

    Before NIEMEYER and HAMILTON, Circuit Judges, and PHILLIPS, Senior


    Circuit Judge.

    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


    Robert James Murphy, Appellant Pro Se. Sandra Jane Hairston, Assistant United States Attorney, Greensboro, North Carolina, for
    Appellee.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Robert James Murphy seeks to appeal the district courts
    orders denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. 2255 (West 1994
    & Supp. 1998) and his motion for reconsideration of that order.

    We

    have reviewed the record and the district courts opinion accepting
    the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible
    error.

    Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and

    dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.

    See

    United States v. Murphy, Nos. CR-93-68; CA-97-397-2 (M.D.N.C. Sept.


    15, 1998; Oct. 19, 1998).

    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
