No. 95-50446 Summary Calendar __________________
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee, versus
RANULFO PINEDA,
Defendant-Appellant.
- - - - - - - - - - Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas USDC No. SA-94-CV-1018 - - - - - - - - - - November 16, 1995 Before DAVIS, BARKSDALE AND DeMOSS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
This is an appeal from the denial of appellant's motion to vacate, correct, or set aside his sentence under 28 U.S.C. § 2255.

* Local Rule 47.5 provides: "The publication of opinions that have no precedential value and merely decide particular cases on the basis of well-settled principles of law imposes needless expense on the public and burdens on the legal profession." Pursuant to that Rule, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published.

United States v. Pineda, No. A-94-CV-1018 (W.D. Tex. May 31, 1995). We decline to address the last claim because it is raised for the first time in an appeal from the denial of a habeas corpus petition. United States v. Houston, 745 F.2d 333, 334 (5th Cir. 1984), cert. denied, 470 U.S. 1008 (1985). Because Appellant's motion for leave to file an out-of-time reply brief does not set forth any arguments that were not previously raised in appellant's brief, the motion is
