We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion ac- cepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no re- versible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. United States v. Blackwell, Nos. CR-94-115; CA-96-910-2 (M.D.N.C. Feb. 20, 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 2
