PER CURIAM:
Dalton Laquane Smith appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his
28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2012) motion. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we affirm
substantially for the reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Smith, Nos.
3:13-cr-01038-JFA-1; 3:15-cv-04225-JFA (D.S.C. Oct. 31, 2018). We dispense with oral
argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the
materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
