    UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,


    Plaintiff - Appellee,
    versus
    THOMAS J. COBB,
    Defendant - Appellant.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of
    South Carolina, at Florence.
    C. Weston Houck, Chief District
    Judge. (CR-90-509, CA-95-3161-4-12)

    Submitted:

    January 7, 1999

    Decided:

    January 26, 1999

    Before WIDENER, MURNAGHAN, and ERVIN, Circuit Judges.

    Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


    Thomas J. Cobb, Appellant Pro Se. William Earl Day, II, Assistant
    United States Attorney, Florence, South Carolina, for Appellee.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Thomas J. Cobb appeals the district courts order denying his
    motion filed under 28 U.S.C. 2255 (1994) (current version at 28
    U.S.C.A. 2255 (West 1994 & Supp. 1998)).

    We have reviewed the

    record and the district courts opinion and find no reversible


    error.

    Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district

    court.

    See Cobb v. United States, Nos. CR-90-509; CA-95-3161-4-12

    (D.S.C. Sept. 30, 1998); see also Lindh v. Murphy, 521 U.S. ___,
    1997 WL 338568 (U.S. June 23, 1997) (No. 96-6298).

    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.

    AFFIRMED
