PER CURIAM:

     Charles Underwood seeks to appeal the district court's order

denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West

1994 & Supp. 1998). We have reviewed the record and the district

court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate

judge and find no reversible error. We have reviewed the record and
the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the

magistrate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny

a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the rea-

soning of the district court. Underwood v. Weldon, No. CA-97-1273
(D.S.C. Nov. 5, 1997). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.




                                                         DISMISSED
