Respondents - Appellees.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Florence. Solomon Blatt, Jr., Senior District Judge. (CA-00-3782-4-8BF, CR-89-353, CR-90-170)

Submitted: November 8, 2001 Decided: November 15, 2001

Before WILKINS, MICHAEL, and KING, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Alexander Walden, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Alexander Walden appeals the district court’s orders denying

relief on his petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed under

(1994) and denying the motion to alter or amend the

judgment. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

order accepting the magistrate judge’s recommendation and the order

denying the motion to alter or amend and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See

Walden v. Hobbs, No. CA-00-3782-4-8BF (D.S.C. Apr. 2, 2001 & Mar.

13, 2001). 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.

AFFIRMED
