See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Mark A. Kirby seeks to appeal the district court’s order
denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West
1994 & Supp. 2000). 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. Kirby v. Unnamed Defendant, No. CA-
00-1304-AM (E.D. Va. filed Aug. 14, 2000; entered Aug. 15, 2000).
We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten-
tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court
and argument would not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
