RONALD J. ANGELONE,
Respondent - Appellee.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of Virginia, at Alexandria. Claude M. Hilton, Chief
District Judge. (CA-01-1668-AM)
Submitted: April 25, 2002 Decided: May 2, 2002
Before WILLIAMS and KING, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior
Circuit Judge.
Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Christopher Michael Palmer, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Christopher Michael Palmer appeals the district court’s order
dismissing without prejudice 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 and dismiss the
appeal on the reasoning of the district court. See Palmer v.
Angelone, No. CA-01-1668-AM (E.D. Va. Nov. 8, 2001). We deny
Palmer’s motion for appointment of counsel. 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
