Accordingly, we deny a certificate of ap- pealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. United States v. Johnson, Nos. CR-93-419-JFM; CA-97-1384-JFM (D. Md.

We deny the motion for stay and dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are ade- quately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
