See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Carl Benit Cooper seeks to appeal the district court’s order
denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp.
1999). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opin-
ion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a cer-
tificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning
of the district court. See United States v. Cooper, Nos. CR-95-
206; CA-98-1802-2-11 (D.S.C. May 17 & July 7, 1999). To the extent
that Cooper raises on appeal claims that he did not present to the
district court, we decline to consider those claims. See Muth v.
United States, 1 F.3d 246, 250 (4th Cir. 1993). We also deny
Cooper’s motion for bail pending appeal and his motion for general
relief to unseal and correct his presentence investigation report.
We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten-
tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court
and argument would not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
