    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS


    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

    No. 97-6421

    UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,


    Plaintiff - Appellee,
    versus
    ALLAN L. GANT,
    Defendant - Appellant.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia, at Beckley. Elizabeth V. Hallanan, Senior
    District Judge. (CR-94-88, CA-96-683-5)
    Submitted:

    October 23, 1997

    Decided:

    November 14, 1997

    Before HAMILTON and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges, and PHILLIPS, Senior


    Circuit Judge.
    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    Allan L. Gant, Appellant Pro Se. Michael Lee Keller, OFFICE OF THE
    UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Charleston, West Virginia, for Appellee.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying
    his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. 2255 (West 1994 & Supp. 1997).
    We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion upholding the recommendation of the magistrate judge 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. Gant, Nos. CR-94-88; CA-96-683-5 (S.D.W. Va. Mar.
    17, 1997). 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
