John Henry Johnson seeks to appeal the district court’s orders denying relief on his Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b) motion, which the district court construed as a petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2000), and denying his motion for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and conclude on the reasoning of the district court that Johnson has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right. See Johnson v. United States, No. CA-99-892-7 (W.D.Va. June 20, 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.
