ORDER DENYING CERTIFICATE OF APPEALABILITY AND DISMISSING CASE

O’BRIEN, Circuit Judge *

Brian Keith Tony, a federal prisoner proceeding pro se 1 and informa pauperis, seeks to appeal from the district court’s dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion raising jurisdictional and double jeopardy issues. Because Tony’s jurisdictional arguments are incorrect and he has otherwise failed to make “a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right,” 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2), we deny his request for a certifícate of appealability (COA) and dismiss this matter.
