PER CURIAM:
Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying
relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1994), amended
by Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub. L.
No. 104-132, 110 Stat. 1214. We have reviewed the record and the
district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magis-
trate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a
certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reason-
ing of the district court. Robinson v. Attorney General of North
Carolina, No. CA-96-1 (M.D.N.C. May 14, 1996). We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-
ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
