    Decided: May 24, 1990.

    E.D.Va.
    AFFIRMED.
    Before WIDENER, K.K. HALL and WILKINS, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:

    James Elmer Ford appeals from the district court's order refusing relief under
    28 U.S.C. Sec. 2255. Our review of the record and the district court's opinion
    discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we deny the
    appointment of counsel and affirm on the reasoning of the district court. United

    States v. Ford, CR-86-97-R; C/A 89-77-R (E.D.Va. June 26, 1989). 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
