Circuit Judge.
Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Donald R. Lohr, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Appellant seeks to appeal the district court’s order dismiss-
ing without prejudice 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 a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on
the reasoning of the district court. Lohr v. Barlow, No. CA-98-70
(E.D. Va. Mar. 26, 1998). Given the disposition of his appeal, Ap-
pellant’s Motion for Appeal Bond is now moot and is denied for that
reason. 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
