Aaron Lamont Barnes, Appellant Pro Se. Nicholas Stephan Altimari, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

2 PER CURIAM:

Aaron Lamont Barnes seeks to appeal from the district court’s

orders denying his motion filed under

(West 1994

& Supp. 1998), denying his motion for reconsideration, and denying

his motion for a certificate of appealability. We have reviewed the

record and the district court’s opinions and find no reversible

error. Accordingly, we deny Barnes’ motion to remand for an eviden-

tiary hearing, deny his motion for a certificate of appealability,

and dismiss the appeals on the reasoning of the district court.

United States v. Barnes, Nos. CR-94-80; CA-97-228-3 (E.D. Va. June

9, June 26, and July 29, 1998). 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 deci-

sional process.

DISMISSED
