PER CURIAM:
Charles Jones 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 and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny
Jones’ motion for a certificate of appealability and dismiss the
appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Jones v. Corcoran,
No. CA-97-1502-CCB (D. Md. Feb. 24, 1998). 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
