PER CURIAM.
Alvin Bass seeks to appeal the district court’s order construing his petition for a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (1994) as a motion Sled under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp.2000) and dis missing it without prejudice as successive. 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. See United States v. Bass, Nos. CR-90-352-A; CA-97-754-AM (E.D.Va. Jan. 4, 2000). 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
