    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

    PER CURIAM:
    Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying
    his motion filed under 28 U.S.C. 2255 (1994), amended by Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104132, 110 Stat. 1214. We have reviewed the record and the district
    court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we
    deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the
    reasoning of the district court. United States v. Chaney, Nos.
    CR-95-140-JFM; CA-96-2302-JFM (D. Md. Aug. 30, 1996). 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
