See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying
relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1988) petition. We have reviewed
the record and the district court's opinion and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dis-
miss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Harrelson
v. Angelone, No. CA-96-174-R (W.D. Va. Feb. 26, 1996). 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
