PER CURIAM:
Lazaro Tapia-Santana seeks to appeal the district court’s
orders denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West
Supp. 2001) and his motion to alter or amend judgment. We have
reviewed the record and the district court’s orders and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appeal-
ability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district
court. United States v. Tapia-Santana, Nos. CR-93-62-BR; CA-00-
864-BR (E.D.N.C. Jan. 18, 2001; Feb. 5, 2001). We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-
ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
