Gary M. Milligan appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2000) motion. On appeal, Milligan only contests the district court’s order insofar as it concluded that the United States had jurisdiction to prosecute Milligan for arson in violation of 18 U.S.C.A. § 844© (West 2000). Specifically, Milligan contends that the indictment failed to sufficiently allege a nexus between the arson and interstate commerce. We find that claim flatly contradicted by the indictment. To the extent that Milligan contends that the prosecution failed to adequately prove the interstate commerce nexus, Milligan pled guilty, and thus admitted the material elements of the offense. McCarthy v. United States, 394 U.S. 459, 466, 89 S.Ct. 1166, 22 L.Ed.2d 418 (1969). Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal. * 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.
