Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Wilbert Percy Epps, Appellant Pro Se.

See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Wilbert Percy Epps 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 and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a cer-
tificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning
of the district court. See Epps v. Angelone, No. CA-99-1860-AM
(E.D. Va. Jan. 12, 2000). We dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-
terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
DISMISSED
