L. No. 104-132, 110 Stat. 1214. We have reviewed the record and the dis- trict court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, Souheil's motion for appointment of counsel is denied and we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. United States v. Souheil, Nos. CR-94-6; CA-96-139 (E.D. Va. Apr. 11, 1996). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate- ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED 2
