PER CURIAM:
Timothy Michael Jackson seeks to appeal the district court’s
order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254
(1994) (current version at 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. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of
probable cause to appeal and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of
the district court. Jackson v. Beshears, No. CA-95-1991-PJM (D. Md.
June 20, 1997). See Lindh v. Murphy, 521 U.S. ___, 1997 WL 338568
(U.S. June 23, 1997) (No. 96-6298). 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
