PER CURIAM:
Jaime Acevedo seeks to appeal the district court’s order de-
nying 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 and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny
a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the rea-
soning of the district court. See Acevedo v. Garraghty, No. CA-99-
288-7 (W.D. Va. Oct. 22, 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
