    UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,


    Plaintiff - Appellee,
    versus
    ISAAC MATTHEW RICHARDSON,
    Defendant - Appellant.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
    District of North Carolina, at New Bern.
    Malcolm J. Howard,
    District Judge. (CR-00-48, CA-02-36-4-H)

    Submitted:

    Decided:

    May 22, 2003

    Before LUTTIG and KING, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior


    Circuit Judge.

    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

    Isaac Matthew Richardson, Appellant Pro Se.


    Mary Jude Darrow,
    OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Raleigh, North Carolina, for
    Appellee.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Isaac Matthew Richardson seeks to appeal the district courts
    order denying relief on his motion filed under 28 U.S.C. 2255
    (2000).

    We have independently reviewed the record and conclude

    that Richardson has not made a substantial showing of the denial of


    a constitutional right.
    123 S. Ct. 1029 (2003).

    See Miller-El v. Cockrell,

    U.S.

    Accordingly, we deny a certificate of

    appealability and dismiss the appeal.

    See 28 U.S.C. 2253(c)

    (2000). We deny Richardsons motion to amend the record on appeal.


    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
