    PER CURIAM:
    Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying
    his motion filed under 
    28 U.S.C. § 2255
     (1994), amended by Antiter-
    rorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104-
    132, 
    110 Stat. 1214
    . 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. United States v. Nance, Nos. CR-92-
    135; CA-96-334-R (W.D. Va. Nov. 7, 1996). We decline to review any
    issues Appellant seeks to raise for the first time on appeal. We
    deny Appellant's motion for appointment of counsel. 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
