UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 09-7677

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff - Appellee,

v.

MARK JAMES KONSAVICH,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Harrisonburg. Glen E. Conrad, District Judge. (5:05-cr-00019-gec-mfu-1; 5:08-cv-80100-gec)

Submitted: December 16, 2009 Decided: January 19, 2010

Before NIEMEYER, KING, and GREGORY, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Mark James Konsavich, Appellant Pro Se. Jeb Thomas Terrien, Assistant United States Attorney, Harrisonburg, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Mark James Konsavich seeks to appeal the district

court’s orders denying relief on his

(West

Supp. 2009) motion and denying his motion for reconsideration.

The orders are not appealable unless a circuit justice or judge

issues a certificate of appealability.

(c)(1)

(2006). A certificate of appealability will not issue absent “a

substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.”

(c)(2) (2006). A prisoner satisfies this

standard by demonstrating that reasonable jurists would find

that any assessment of the constitutional claims by the district

court is debatable or wrong and that any dispositive procedural

ruling by the district court is likewise debatable. Miller-

El v. Cockrell,

(2003); Slack v. McDaniel,

(2000); Rose v. Lee,

(4th

Cir. 2001). We have independently reviewed the record and

Konsavich’s arguments on appeal and conclude Konsavich has not

made the requisite showing. 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
