PER CURIAM:
Kenneth Junior Smith seeks to appeal the district court’s
orders denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West
Supp. 2001). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s
opinions denying relief 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. Smith, Nos.
CR-98-1169; CA-01-249 (D.S.C. Mar. 14, 2001, and filed May 10, 2001
& entered May 11, 2001). We dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-
terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
DISMISSED
