PER CURIAM:
Russell Lee Mawyer appeals 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 accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Mawyer’s motion for
a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the
reasoning of the district court. See Mawyer v. Rushton, No. CA-99-
3790 (D.S.C. July 31, 2000). 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
