UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Torrance JONES, a/k/a Tube, Defendant-Appellant, 35 F. App'x 382

PER CURIAM. Torrance Jones seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2001). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. United States v. Jones, Nos. CR-96-79-BO; CA-00-728-5-BO (E.D.N.C. Sept. 18, 2001). We deny Jones’ suggestion that this Court should stay its ruling in this case pending the outcome of certain state proceedings.

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.
