Submitted: August 7, 2000 Decided: October 6, 2000

Before MURNAGHAN,* WILLIAMS, and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Herolyn Rose, Jr., Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

* Judge Murnaghan was assigned to the panel in this case but died prior to the time the decision was filed. The decision is filed by a quorum of the panel pursuant to

(d). PER CURIAM:

Herolyn Rose, Jr., seeks to appeal the district court’s order

denying relief on his petition filed under

(West

1994 & Supp. 2000). We have reviewed the record and the district

court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny

a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the rea-

soning of the district court. See Rose v. Young, No. CA-00-696-AM

(E.D. Va. May 2, 2000). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

DISMISSED
