PER CURIAM:

     Kenneth B. Kubinski seeks to appeal the district court’s order

denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp.

2000).   In a supplemental brief, he asserts claims that the Gov-

ernment failed to disclose exculpatory material as required by

Brady v. Maryland, 

 (1963); that the trial court failed

to instruct the jury in accordance with Richardson v. United

States, 

 (1999), regarding the continuing criminal

enterprise count; and that his sentence violates Apprendi v. New

Jersey, 

 (2000).   We have reviewed the record and the

district court’s opinion and find no reversible error as to its de-

nial of relief on Kubinski’s claim under Brady.   We decline to con-

sider Kubinski’s claims under Richardson and Apprendi,* presented

for the first time on appeal. See Muth v. United States, 

, 250 (4th Cir. 1993).   Accordingly, we deny a certificate of

appealability and dismiss the appeal.   United States v. Kubinski,

Nos. CR-93-28-H; CA-97-973-5-H (E.D.N.C. July 1, 1999).     We dis-

pense 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



     *
       We recently held in United States v. Sanders, 

(4th Cir. 2001), that the new rule announced in Apprendi is not
retroactively applicable to cases on collateral review. Accord-
ingly, Kubinski’s Apprendi claim is not cognizable.
