David Bernard Smith,

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM:
Appellant Ronald Hanberry appeals the district courts order
denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. 2255 (West 1994 &
Supp. 1998). Appellants case was referred to a magistrate judge
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 636(b)(1)(B) (1994). The magistrate judge
recommended that relief be denied and advised Appellant that the
failure to file timely objections to this recommendation could
waive appellate review of a district court order based upon the
recommendation. Despite this warning, Appellant failed to timely
object to the magistrate judges recommendation.
The timely filing of objections to a magistrate judges
recommendation is necessary to preserve appellate review of the
substance of that recommendation when the parties have been warned
that failure to object will waive appellate review. See Wright v.
Collins, 766 F.2d 841, 845-46 (4th Cir. 1985); United States v.
Schronce, 727 F.2d 91, 93-94 (4th Cir.), cert. denied, 467 U.S.
1208 (1984); see also Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140 (1985). Appellant
has waived appellate review by failing to file timely objections
after receiving proper notice. We accordingly deny Appellants motion for a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal. 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
