of North Carolina, Respondents-Appellees.

No. 86-6790.

United States Court of Appeals,
Fourth Circuit.

Submitted Dec. 31, 1986.
Decided Feb. 6, 1987.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of North Carolina, at Statesville. Woodrow W. Jones, District Judge. (C/A No. 86-111-ST-C).

Johnny Joseph Head, appellant pro se.

Lacy H. Thornburg, Office of the Attorney General, for appellees.

W.D.N.C.

DISMISSED.

Before HALL, MURNAGHAN and SPROUSE, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

1

A review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that an appeal from its order refusing habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 would be without merit. Because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal, dispense with oral argument, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Head v. O'Dea, C/A No. 86-111-ST-C (W.D.N.C., Oct. 15, 1986).

2

DISMISSED.
