Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's orders denying relief on his petitions filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 1998). We have reviewed the records and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a cer- tificate of appealability and dismiss the appeals on the reasoning of the district court. Guilfoyle v. Angelone, Nos. CA-96-1237-2; CA-96-1238-2 (E.D. Va. Apr. 13, 1998). We grant Guilfoyle’s motion to incorporate his brief filed in No. 98-6609, to No. 98-6608. 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
