  •                             UNPUBLISHED
    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
    No. 97-6593
    UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
    Plaintiff - Appellee,
    versus
    GEORGE GLYMPH, d/b/a Specifications and Stan-
    dards, Inc.,
    Defendant - Appellant.
    Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of
    South Carolina, at Columbia. Dennis W. Shedd, District Judge.
    (CR-94-776, CA-96-3790-3-19)
    Submitted:   July 8, 1997                 Decided:   January 22, 1998
    Before MURNAGHAN, WILKINS, and HAMILTON, Circuit Judges.
    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    George Glymph, Appellant Pro Se. Eric William Ruschky, Assistant
    United States Attorney, Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellee.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
    See Local Rule 36(c).
    PER CURIAM:
    Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying
    his motion filed under 
    28 U.S.C.A. § 2255
     (West 1994 & Supp. 1997).
    We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.   Appel-
    lant is foreclosed from raising his sufficiency of evidence claim
    because he litigated it on direct appeal and did not assert an
    intervening change in law that warrants reconsideration. See Davis
    v. United States, 
    417 U.S. 333
    , 342 (1974); Boeckenhaupt v. United
    States, 
    537 F.2d 1182
    , 1183 (4th Cir. 1976). Further, because
    Appellant failed to challenge the form of his indictment in his
    direct appeal, he may not assert it in this collateral proceeding.
    See Stone v. Powell, 
    428 U.S. 465
    , 477 n.10 (1976). Accordingly, we
    deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal. United
    States v. Glymph, Nos. CR-94-776; CA-96-3790-3-19 (D.S.C. Apr. 16,
    1997). 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
