Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 873 F.2d 1441 (4th Cir. 1989) Submitted: Jan. 10, 1989. Decided: April 6, 1989

Lewis C. Thornton, Jr., appellant pro se.

Stephen A. West (Office of the United States Attorney), for appellees.

Before WIDENER, WILKINSON and WILKINS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:


Lewis C. Thornton, Jr., appeals from the district court's order refusing relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2255. Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Thornton v. Townley, C/A No. 88-473-HC (E.D.N.C. Aug. 12, 1988). We dispense with oral argument because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively.

AFFIRMED.
