No. 95-7411.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Submitted Sept. 10, 1996.
Decided Sept. 19, 1996.

Richard A. Gray, Appellant Pro Se. Pamela Anne Sargent, Assistant Attorney General, Mary Elizabeth Shea, OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF VIRGINIA, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.

Before MURNAGHAN, HAMILTON, and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

1

Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying relief on his petition filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1994), amended by Act of Apr. 24, 1996, 28 U.S.C.S. § 2254 (Law. Co-op Advance Sheet June 1996). We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal; to the extent that a certificate of appealability is required, we deny such a certificate. We dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Gray v. Angelone, No. CA-95-273-2 (E.D.Va. Aug. 4, 1995).

2

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.

3

DISMISSED.
