    UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,


    Plaintiff - Appellee,
    versus
    EDWARD MACK HICKS,
    Defendant - Appellant.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western
    District of North Carolina, at Statesville. Richard L. Voorhees,
    District Judge. (CR-95-43, CA-97-153-5-V)

    Submitted:

    Before WIDENER, LUTTIG, and GREGORY, Circuit Judges.

    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


    Edward Mack Hicks, Appellant Pro Se.
    Robert Jack Higdon, Jr.,
    OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Charlotte, North Carolina,
    for Appellee.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Edward Mack Hicks seeks to appeal the district courts order
    denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. 2255 (West Supp.
    2001).

    We have reviewed the record and the district courts opin-

    ion and find no reversible error.

    Accordingly, although we grant

    leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district
    court.

    See United States v. Hicks, Nos. CR-95-43; CA-97-153-5-V

    (W.D.N.C. filed Aug. 20, 2001, entered Aug. 24, 2001). 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
