PER CURIAM:
Jimmie Washington 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 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 reasoning of the dis-
trict court. See Washington v. Davis, No. CA-97-1801-2-8AJ (D.S.C.
Nov. 3, 1998). Washington’s motions for an extension of time to
complete his informal brief and to supplement the informal brief
are granted. 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
