¶1 Willie Bailey, Jr., seeks to appeal the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying relief on his motion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000). We have reviewed the record and conclude on the reasoning of the district court that Bailey has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right. See United States v. Bailey, Nos. CR-99-55; CR-99-97; CA-01-1037-1 (M.D.N.C. filed Aug. 30, 2002 & entered Sept. 3, 2002). Accordingly, we deny Bailey’s motion for a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c) (2000). 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.
¶2 DISMISSED.
