v.
Gary L. WOODARD, Respondent-Appellee.
No. 94-7106.
United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
Submitted: March 15, 1995.
Decided: April 3, 1995.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. Malcolm J. Howard, District Judge. (CA-94-605-5-H)
James Calvin Horton, Petitioner Pro Se.
Before RUSSELL and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges, and CHAPMAN, Senior Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:
Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying relief on his 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 (1988) petition. 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. Horton v. Woodard, No. CA-94-605-5-H (E.D.N.C. Sept. 6, 1994). Appellant's motion for appointed counsel is also denied. 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.
