See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Waderoy C.M. Senior 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 certif-

icate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of

the district court.   See United States v. Senior, Nos. CR-95-74;

CA-98-731-3 (E.D. Va. July 27, 1999).   We also note that Senior’s

§ 2255 motion was untimely.   See Brown v. Angelone, 

,

375-76 (4th Cir. 1998). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.




                                                          DISMISSED
