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Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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:
Appellant seeks to appeal the magistrate judge's order denying
relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1988) petition.* We have reviewed
the record and the magistrate judge's opinion and find no rever-
sible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability
and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the magistrate judge.
Lea v. Mahon, No. CA-95-49-3 (E.D. Va. Dec. 19, 1995). 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
*
The parties consented to disposition by a magistrate judge
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (1988).
