UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 02-6794

SELWYN BROADNAX-BEY,

Petitioner - Appellant,

versus

JON GALLEY, Warden,

Defendant - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Baltimore. Frederic N. Smalkin, Chief District Judge. (CA-02-949-S)

Submitted: September 19, 2002 Decided: September 27, 2002

Before WILKINS, LUTTIG, and TRAXLER, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Selwyn Broadnax-Bey, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Selwyn Broadnax-Bey seeks to appeal the district court’s order

denying relief on his petition filed under

(2000).

We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and

conclude on the reasoning of the district court that Broadnax-Bey

has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a

constitutional right. See Broadnax v. Galley, No. CA-02-949-S (D.

Md. May 6, 2002). Accordingly, we deny a certificate of

appealability and dismiss the appeal. See

(c)

(2000). 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
