PER CURIAM:
James Bells seeks to appeal the district court’s order grant-
ing summary judgment to the Respondents 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 and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and
dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. See
Bells v. Moore, No. CA-98-2589-6-12-AK (D.S.C. Sept. 7, 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
