45 F. App'x 308

United States v. Savoy

Opinion

*309 PER CURIAM.

Robert Dion Savoy seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying his motion for relief from judgment in which he challenged the denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000) motion. * We have reviewed the record and conclude on the reasoning of the district court that Savoy has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right. See United States v. Savoy, Nos. CR-90-398-A; CA-94-1179-AM (E.D.Va. Mar. 21, 2002). Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c) (2000).

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.

*

Although this motion was filed in the district court pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b)(6), it essentially sought to preserve Savoy’s claims raised in his underlying motion to vacate, set aside, or correct his sentence.
