Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Baltimore. William M. Nickerson, District Judge. (CA-92-3666-WN)

William M. Bailey, Appellant Pro Se.

D.Md.

DISMISSED.

Before RUSSELL and HALL, Circuit Judges, and SPROUSE, Senior Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM:

1

William M. Bailey seeks to appeal the district court's order dismissing without prejudice his petition for habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1988), for failure to exhaust state court remedies. Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Bailey v. Smith, No. CA-92-3666-WN (D. Md. Jan. 15, 1993). 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
