Assistant Attorney General, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.

See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Claude Reedy, Jr., seeks to appeal the district court’s order
denying his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 &
Supp. 1999). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s
opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a cer-
tificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning
of the district court. See Reedy v. Director of Virginia Depart-
ment of Corrections, No. CA-98-758-7 (W.D. Va. Feb. 24, 1999). 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
