United States v. McPherson , 55 F. App'x 158 ( 2003 )

PER CURIAM.

David Louis McPherson 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 for the reasons stated by the district court that McPherson has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right. See United States v. McPherson, Nos. CR-00-81-H; CA-02-58-H (E.D.N.C. July 19, 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.
