Michael Antonio Lucas seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2000). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certifícate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. See United States v. Lucas, Nos. CR-91-308; CA-01-278-S (D.Md. filed Feb. 1, 2001; entered Feb. 2, 2001). Lucas’ motion to proceed in forma pauperis is 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.
