PER CURIAM:
Teresa Brown seeks to appeal the district court’s order deny-
ing her 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 substantially on the reasoning
of the district court. United States v. Brown, Nos. CR-89-391-JFM;
CR-89-392; CA-97-1095-HNM (D. Md. July 29, 1997). In addition, we
note that Brown’s claim that her counsel provided her with inef-
fective assistance on appeal is belied by the record. See Jones v.
Barnes, 463 U.S. 745 (1983). We dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-
terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
DISMISSED
