Kenneth W. Barksdale seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2000). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s memorandum opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. See Barksdale v. Angelone, No. CA-00-1726-AM (E.D.Va. Mar. 18, 2002). We deny Barksdale’s motions to compel discovery and to suppress. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court *658 and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED.
