UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 98-7308 LONNIE LEE CARR, Petitioner - Appellant, versus RON ANGELONE; MARK EARLEY, Respondents - Appellees. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Alexandria. Albert V. Bryan, Jr., Senior District Judge. (CA-98-951) Submitted: October 27, 1998 Decided: November 10, 1998 Before LUTTIG and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge. Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Lonnie Lee Carr, Appellant Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals 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. The district court properly concluded that Appellant’s petition was time-barred because it was filed more than one year after Appellant’s conviction became final. Accord- ingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the ap- peal on the reasoning of the district court. Carr v. Angelone, No. CA-98-951 (E.D. Va. July 16, 1998). We deny Appellant’s motion for oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate- ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process. DISMISSED 2
