Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Trevor Little appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion for relief from judg- ment. We have reviewed the record and Little’s informal brief and find that Little is not entitled to relief because the case upon which he relies, Slack v. Daniel, 529 U.S. 473 (2000), does not call into question the validity of the denial of a certificate of appealability in Little’s prior appeal. See United States v. Little, No. 99-7489 (4th Cir. Feb. 22, 2000) (unpublished).

Accordingly, we deny Little’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis, 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
