Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Richard M. Hirschfeld, Appellant Pro Se. Helen F. Fahey, United States Attorney, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM:

Richard Hirschfeld appeals the district court's orders (i) de-

nying his motion to recuse the United States Attorney's office in

the Eastern District of Virginia and his motion filed under

(1994), amended by Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996,

Stat. 1214; and (ii)

denying his motion to recuse the district court judge.* We have

reviewed the record and the district court's opinions and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court. United States v. Hirschfeld, Nos. CR-90-142; CA-95- 1089-2 (E.D. Va. Dec. 28, 1995; Jan. 22, 1996). We deny Appel-

lant's motion for general relief, deny Appellee's motion to supple-

ment the record, and 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.

AFFIRMED

* We have jurisdiction over the denial of the motion to recuse because Appellant timely raised the claim in his informal brief. See Smith v. Barry,

(1992).
