Corey L. Sparkman appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 2001) and order on reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealabihty and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. See Sparkman v. Eagleton, No. CA-00-1828-2-23 (D.S.C. filed July 3, 2001, entered July 5, 2001; filed Aug. 13, 2001, entered Aug. 14, 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.
