Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

      James Kane appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his 28 U.S.C.

§ 2255 (2012) motion, filed pursuant to authorization from this court. We have reviewed

the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order

and deny Kane’s motion to accelerate the processing of the appeal. We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the

materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.



                                                                             AFFIRMED
