PER CURIAM:

1

Appellant appeals the district court's order denying his 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2255 (1988) motion. Because Appellant failed to take a direct appeal of the non-constitutional errors alleged in imposing the sentence challenged in this action, Appellant has waived Sec. 2255 review. Stone v. Powell, 428 U.S. 465, 477 n. 10 (1976). Therefore, this appeal is without merit.

2

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
