PER CURIAM:
Phillip Bookhard seeks to appeal the district court’s order
denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp.
2001). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opin-
ion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certif-
icate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of
the district court. United States v. Bookhard, Nos. CR-97-839; CA-
99-3301-5-24 (D.S.C. filed May 1, 2001; entered May 2, 2001). We
deny the Government’s motion to dismiss for failure to comply with
the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure. 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
