UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 99-7371

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff - Appellee,

versus

JAMES DONNIE SKELTON,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Anderson. G. Ross Anderson, Jr., District Judge. (CR-95-834, CA-98-3522-8-13)

Submitted: August 31, 2000 Decided: September 26, 2000

Before WILKINS, LUTTIG, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Robert Keller Leonard, Winston-Salem, North Carolina, for Appel- lant. Arthur Bradley Parham, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Florence, South Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

James Donnie Skelton seeks to appeal the district court’s

order denying his motion filed under

(West Supp.

2000). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opin-

ion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certif-

icate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of

the district court. See United States v. Skelton, Nos. CR-95-834;

CA-98-3522-8-13 (D.S.C. Aug. 12, 1999). 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
