James Elmer Ford, appellant pro se.

N. George Metcalf, Assistant United States Attorney, Richmond, Va., for appellee.

E.D. Va.

AFFIRMED.

Before WIDENER, K.K. HALL and WILKINS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:


James Elmer Ford 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 deny the appointment of counsel and affirm on the reasoning of the district court. United States v. Ford, CR-86-97-R; C/A 89-77-R (E.D. Va. June 26, 1989). 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.

AFFIRMED
