Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Arthur F. Jones, Appellant Pro Se. Sean Kittrell, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Charleston, South Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Arthur F. Jones seeks to appeal the district court’s order

denying relief on his motion filed under

28 U.S.C. § 2255

(2000).

We have reviewed the record and conclude that Jones has not made a

substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right. See

Slack v. McDaniel,

529 U.S. 473, 484

(2000). 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
