PER CURIAM:
Fernando Q. Lennon seeks to appeal the district court’s order
denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000). We have
reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and conclude
on the reasoning of the district court that Lennon has not made a
substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right. See
United States v. Lennon, Nos. CR-00-81; CA-02-28-4 (E.D. Va. Apr.
19, 2002). Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and
dismiss the appeal. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c) (2000). 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
