PER CURIAM:
Tariq Williams 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 accepting 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. See
United States v. Williams, Nos. CR-97-39, CA-02-187 (S.D.W. Va. May
10, 2002). 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
