Richards v. Angelone

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit
Richards v. Angelone, 51 F. App'x 417 (4th Cir. 2002)

Richards v. Angelone

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Mark E. Richards, a state prisoner, seeks to appeal the magistrate judge’s order denying relief on his petition filed un *418 der 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2000). * We have reviewed the record and conclude in part for the reasons stated by the magistrate judge that Richards has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right. See Richards v. Angelone, CA-01-176-3 (E.D. Va. June 27, 2002). We further find Richards’ claims regarding his parole revocation hearing were barred by the one year limitations period. See 28 U.S.C. § 2244(d) (2000); Crawley v. Catoe, 257 F.3d 395, 399 (4th Cir. 2001), cert, denied, — U.S.-, 122 S.Ct. 811, 151 L.Ed.2d 696 (2002). Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(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.

*

By consent of the parties, the decision below was rendered by a magistrate judge. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (2000).
