PER CURIAM:
Advertisement
Jimmy Doyle Hindman appeals from the district court's order refusing relief under 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2255. The district court properly noted that the issue raised by Hindman was previously rejected on the merits on direct appeal. As there has been no intervening change in the law favorable to Hindman, see Huddleston v. United States, 56 U.S.L.W. 4363 (U.S. May 1, 1988) (No. 87-6), there is no basis for the relitigation of this claim. Davis v. United States, 417 U.S. 333, 342 (1974); Boeckenhaupt v. United States, 537 F.2d 1182 (4th Cir.1976). 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.
