Richards v. Angelone

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit February 27, 2002

Richards v. Angelone, 30 F. App'x 110 (4th Cir. 2002)

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Mark E. Richards appeals the magistrate judge’s order dismissing his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 2001). * We have reviewed the record and the magistrate judge’s orders and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the magistrate judge. See Richards v. Angelone, CA-01-225 (E.D.Va. Nov. 15, 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.

This case was decided by a magistrate judge exercising jurisdiction upon consent of the parties. 28 U.S.C.A. § 636(c) (West 1993 & Supp. 2001).
