See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Michael Scott Howery 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 the district court's
opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a cer-
tificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning
of the district court. United States v. Howery, Nos. CR-92-116-A;
CA-96-1104-AM (E.D. Va. Sept. 16, 1996). Howery's motion for bail
pending appeal is denied. We dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-
terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
DISMISSED
