John Willie Davis, Appellant Pro Se. Harold Watson Gowdy, III,
OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Greenville, South Carolina,
for Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     John Willie Davis seeks to appeal the district court’s order

denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994 &

Supp. 1998).   We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

opinion and find no reversible error.       Accordingly, we deny a

certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the rea-

soning of the district court.   See United States v. Davis, Nos. CR-

96-105; CA-98-1064-6-13 (D.S.C. June 5, 1998). We deny Appellant’s

motion for extension of time 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
