Luis Ensuncho, Appellant Pro Se. John Patrick Rowley, III, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM:
Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying
his motion filed under
28 U.S.C.A. § 2255(West 1994 & Supp. 1997).
We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of ap-
pealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. United States v. Ensuncho, Nos. CR-91-51-A; CA-97-826-AM (E.D. Va. June 9, 1997). We also deny Appellant's motion to prevent
his transfer to another facility. Inmates have no liberty interest
in placement in a particular prison and prison officials have broad discretion in determining at which facility to house an inmate. See Cochran v. Morris,
73 F.3d 1310, 1318(4th Cir. 1996) (citing
Meachum v. Fano,
427 U.S. 215, 224(1976)). 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
