1Opinion of the Court
POLITZ, Circuit Judge:
Because they are based on the same convictions and sentences and involve the same or similar facts, we consolidate the appeal by Ray Lauga from the denial of postconviction relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 with his appeal from the denial of relief under Rule 35 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. Lauga claims that he was denied the effective assistance of counsel at the trial and appellate levels and that the trial court incorrectly declined to reduce the sentence on the obstruction of justice charge. Finding no merit in any issue raised in these appeals, we affirm.
