Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
George Thayer Diggs, Jr., seeks to appeal the district court’s
orders denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. §
2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 2001) and denying his motion to alter or
amend the judgment. We have reviewed the record and the district
court’s memorandums and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we
deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the
reasoning of the district court. See Diggs v. Sheriff, No. CA-01-
201-3 (E.D. Va. Apr. 10 & 30, 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
