Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western Dis- trict of Virginia, at Roanoke. Samuel G. Wilson, Chief District Judge. (CA-97-172-R)

Charles Richard Riley, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM:

Appellant appeals the district court's order denying his

motion filed under

(West 1994 & Supp. 1997). We

have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion and find

no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appeal-

ability and dismiss on the reasoning of the district court. Riley v. Deeds, No. CA-97-172-R (W.D. Va. Mar 18, 1997). Appellant's

motion for a default judgment is 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
