William Bernard Randolph, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See
Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     William Bernard Randolph seeks to appeal 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 dis-

trict 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.    See Randolph v. Bass, No. CA-

99-R (W.D. Va. Jan. 11, 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
