Plaintiff - Appellee,

versus

ROBERTO SORTO,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern Dis- trict of Virginia, at Alexandria. Albert V. Bryan, Jr., Senior District Judge. (CR-96-251-A, CA-99-848-AM)

Submitted: November 4, 1999 Decided: November 9, 1999

Before NIEMEYER, MICHAEL, and KING, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Roberto Sorto, Appellant Pro Se. Rebeca Hidalgo Bellows, Assistant United States Attorney, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Roberto Sorto seeks to appeal the district court’s order deny-

ing his motion filed under

(West Supp. 1999).

We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and

find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of

appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the dis-

trict court. See United States v. Sorto, Nos. CR-96-251-A; CA-99-

848-AM (E.D. Va. June 23, 1999). Sorto’s motions submitting that

(1994) is unconstitutional, to proceed on appeal on

original records, and for a transcript at government expense are

denied. 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
