PER CURIAM:
David Eugene White appeals the district court’s order denying
relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 &
Supp. 1999). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s
opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny White’s motion for
leave to proceed in forma pauperis, deny a certificate of appeal-
ability, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district
court. See White v. Angelone, No. CA-99-108-2 (E.D. Va. July 23,
1999). 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
