OPINION
PER CURIAM:

David Walker Lamb appeals from the district court's orders refusing relief
under 28 U.S.C. 2255 and denying his motion for reconsideration. 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.*


United States v. Lamb, CR-81-7R (W.D.Va. Dec. 19, 1989 and Jan. 16, 1990).
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.
