Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Anthony Blagrove seeks to appeal the district court’s order
construing his petition filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (1994)
as a motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994 & Supp.
1999). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opin-
ion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find
no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appeal-
ability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district
court. See United States v. Blagrove, No. CR-95-52 (E.D. Va. Dec.
7, 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

The district court order was filed December 4, 1998.
