See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     James Terry Little seeks to appeal the district court’s order

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

2001).     We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and

find no reversible error.        Accordingly, we deny a certificate of

appealability and dismiss the appeal substantially on the reasoning

of the district court.        See San Miguel v. Dove,          F.3d      , 

 (4th Cir. May 21, 2002).          Although we grant leave to file

a supplemental brief, 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
