UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Juanita E. LAWSON, Defendant-Appellant, 204 F. App'x 214

PER CURIAM: Juanita E. Lawson seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying relief on her motion for modification of her judgment of conviction entered on September 12, 2000. To the extent that the court construed Lawson’s motion as one filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000) motion, the order is not appealable unless a circuit justice or judge issues a certificate of appealability. 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(1) (2000). A certificate of appealability will not issue absent “a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.” 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2) (2000).

A prisoner satisfies this standard by demonstrating that reasonable jurists would find that any assessment of the constitutional claims by the district court is debatable or wrong and that any dispositive procedural ruling by the district court is likewise debatable. Miller-El v. Cockrell, 537 U.S. 322, 336-38, 123 S.Ct. 1029, 154 L.Ed.2d 931 (2003); Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484, 120 S.Ct. 1595, 146 L.Ed.2d 542 (2000); Rose v. Lee, 252 F.3d 676, 683-84 (4th Cir.2001). We have independently reviewed the record and conclude that Lawson has not made the requisite showing.

Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal. To the extent the court considered Lawson’s motion as a motion for reconsideration of the September 12, 2000, order pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b), we have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. We therefore affirm. 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. DISMISSED IN PART; AFFIRMED IN PART.
