ORDER AND JUDGMENT1

ANDERSON

1

After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R.App. P. 34(a); 10th Cir. R. 34.1.9. This cause is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.

Kenneth Ray Holley, proceeding pro se, appeals from the dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. 2254 petition for a writ of habeas corpus. The district court granted petitioner's motion for a certificate of probable cause.

3

We have carefully reviewed the record in this case, and AFFIRM the dismissal of the petition for substantially the reasons set forth in the district court's order. The mandate shall issue forthwith.
