District of Virginia, at Alexandria. Gerald Bruce Lee, District

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
David A. Braxton, Jr., Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
David A. Braxton, Jr., 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 and find no reversible error. Accordingly,
we deny a certificate of appealability, deny leave to proceed in
forma pauperis on appeal, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning
of the district court. See Braxton v. Young, No. CA-01-1595-AM
(E.D. Va. filed Feb. 8, 2002; entered Feb. 11, 2002). 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
