PER CURIAM:
Larry Keith Easter seeks to appeal the district court’s order
denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West
1994 & Supp. 2001). 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 a certif-
icate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of
the district court. Easter v. Angelone, No. CA-00-242, (E.D. Va.
June 6, 2001). We grant Easter’s motion for leave to proceed in
forma pauperis and deny his motions for appointment of counsel and
for production of documents. We dispense with oral argument be-
cause the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in
the materials before the court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
DISMISSED
