PER CURIAM:
Appellant seeks to appeal the magistrate judge's order* deny-
ing relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West
1994 & Supp. 1997). We have reviewed the record and the district
court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny
a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the rea-
soning of the district court. Robinson v. Angelone, No. CA-96-684
(E.D. Va. Apr. 14, 1997). We dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-
terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
DISMISSED
