Before WILKINS, NIEMEYER, and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Booker Taliferio Henderson, Appellant Pro Se. Linwood Theodore Wells, Jr., Assistant Attorney General, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Booker Taliferio Henderson seeks to appeal the district

court’s order denying relief on his petition filed under

(West 1994 & Supp. 2001). We have reviewed the

record and the district court’s opinion accepting the report and

recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible

error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and

dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.

Henderson v. Angelone, No. CA-00-591-2 (E.D. Va. Aug. 24, 2001).

We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten-

tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court

and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED
