    The United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit dismissed Shawn Jerome Allen's appeal of the district court's denial of his motion under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 to vacate, set aside, or correct his sentence. The appellate court reviewed the record and found no reversible error in the district court's rulings. It therefore denied Allen's request for a certificate of appealability and dismissed the appeal, agreeing with the district court's reasoning in denying Allen's § 2255 motion and motion for reconsideration.

    UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,


    Plaintiff - Appellee,
    versus
    SHAWN JEROME ALLEN, a/k/a Rashon Allen,
    Defendant - Appellant.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western
    District of Virginia, at Roanoke. Samuel G. Wilson, Chief District
    Judge. (CR-94-135)

    Submitted:

    February 25, 1999

    Decided:

    March 8, 1999

    Before HAMILTON, WILLIAMS, and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges.

    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


    Shawn Jerome Allen, Appellant Pro Se. Joseph William Hooge Mott,
    Assistant United States Attorney, Roanoke, Virginia, for Appellee.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Shawn Jerome Allen seeks to appeal the district courts orders
    denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. 2255 (West 1994 &
    Supp. 1998) and denying his motion for reconsideration.

    We have

    reviewed the record and the district courts opinions and find no
    reversible error.

    Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appeal-

    ability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district


    court.

    See United States v. Allen, No. CR-94-135 (W.D. Va. July 20

    & Sept. 4, 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
