Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying

relief on his petition filed under

28 U.S.C. § 2254

(1994) (current

version at

28 U.S.C.A. § 2254

(West 1994 & Supp. 1997)). 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 ap-

peal and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.

Stansbury v. South Carolina, No. CA-96-201-3-22-BC (D.S.C. Dec. 9, 1996). See Lindh v. Murphy,

521 U.S. ___

,

1997 WL 338568

(U.S. June 23, 1997) (No. 96-6298). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED
