Anthony Bernard Page appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 2001). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis, deny a certificate of ap-pealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. See Page v. Taylor; No. CA-00-377-AM (E.D. Va. filed Apr. 11, 2001; entered Apr. 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.

DISMISSED.
