PER CURIAM:
Paul James Taylor appeals the district court’s order denying
relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (1994) petition. We have reviewed
the record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we deny Taylor’s motion for appointment of
counsel and affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Taylor
v. Dewalt, No. CA-99-722 (E.D. Va. Aug. 28, 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.
AFFIRMED
