United States of America, Plaintiff-appellee, v. Eugene Fields, A/k/a Verlon Scott, Defendant-appellant, 842 F.2d 1293 (4th Cir. 1988)
Annotate this CaseEugene Fields, appellant pro se.
Martin Patrick Sheehan, Office of the U.S. Attorney, for appellee.
Before SPROUSE, CHAPMAN and WILKINSON, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
A review of the record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate discloses that this appeal from its order refusing relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 is without merit. Because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively, we deny appointment of counsel, dispense with oral argument and affirm the judgment below on the reasoning of the district court. United States v. Fields, C/A No. 86-132-E(K); CR 84-48-K (N.D.W. Va. May 6, 1987). However, because the judgment and commitment order contains an error in the description of the charge of which Fields was convicted, we remand for correction of that order.
AFFIRMED and REMANDED.
