Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit - 46 F.3d 1136 (8th Cir. 1995) Submitted: Jan. 6, 1995. Filed: Jan. 25, 1995

Before McMILLIAN, FAGG, and BOWMAN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.


Michael Jones appeals the district court's order denying Jones's 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion. We affirm.

Having carefully reviewed the record, we conclude the district court's decision is clearly correct and an opinion would lack precedential value. We reject Jones's claim that the district court was biased against him and failed to consider his objections to the magistrate judge's report. Jones has failed to make a prima facie showing that the district court did not undertake the proper review. See United States v. Hamell, 931 F.2d 466, 468 (8th Cir.), cert. denied, 112 S. Ct. 347 (1991).

Accordingly, we deny Jones's motions for appointment of counsel and for photocopies and affirm the district court without an extended opinion. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
