David Watkins seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 2000) and denying his motion for reconsideration. 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 reasoning of the district court. Watkins v. Sacchet, No. CA-00-2545-CCB (D.Md. filed Jan. 30, 2001, entered Jan. 31, 2001; filed and entered Feb. 12, 2001). We dis *135 pense 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.
