Pamela J. Anderson, Appellant Pro Se. Steven Andrew Witmer, OFFICE
OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF VIRGINIA, Richmond, Virginia, for
Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Pamela J. Anderson seeks to appeal the district court’s order
accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying
relief on her petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2000). We have
reviewed the record and conclude on the reasoning of the district
court that Anderson has not made a substantial showing of the
denial of a constitutional right. See Anderson v. Angelone, No. CA-
01-794-2 (E.D. Va. filed July 24, 2002; entered July 26, 2002).
Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the
appeal. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c) (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.
DISMISSED
