PER CURIAM:
Kenneth Eugene Coffey seeks to appeal the district court’s
order dismissing as untimely his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A.
§ 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 1999). We have reviewed the record and
the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accord-
ingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the ap-
peal on the reasoning of the district court. See Coffey v. Walker,
No. CA-98-715-3-V (W.D.N.C. Sept. 29, 1999). 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
