v.
STATE OF MARYLAND, Respondent-Appellee.

No. 87-7380.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Submitted Dec. 18, 1987.
Decided April 15, 1988.

Samuel H. Dillon, appellant pro se.

J. Joseph Curran, Jr., Attorney General, for appellee.

Before K. K. HALL, SPROUSE, and WILKINS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

A review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal from its order refusing habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 is 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. Dillon v. State of Maryland, C/A No. 87-2902-S (D.Md. Oct. 29, 1987).

DISMISSED.
