                 Per  Curiam.   Pro  se petitioner  Henry Castro  Poupart
                 ___________    ___  __

            appeals a  district court order dismissing  his second motion

            to  vacate sentence  under  28 U.S.C.    2255.    Based on  a

            careful review of the entire record, and of all points raised

            on  appeal, we conclude that the district court order must be

            summarily affirmed.  See Local Rule 27.1.
