Decided: July 5, 1988.

Before K.K. HALL, JAMES DICKSON PHILLIPS and CHAPMAN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

1

John Robert Lay seeks to appeal the district court's order refusing habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254. Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Lay v. Virginia State Parole Board, C/A No. 88-458-AM (E.D.Va. April 20, 1988). We dispense with oral argument because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively.

DISMISSED.
