Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Gary Eugene Bair, BENNETT & BAIR, LLC, Greenbelt, Maryland, for Appellant. Edward John Kelley, OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF MARYLAND, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Benoit Tshiwala appeals the district court’s order

denying relief on the Fourth Amendment claims he raised in his

28 U.S.C. § 2254

(2006) petition. ∗ We have reviewed the record

and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the

reasons stated by the district court. Tshiwala v. Hershberger,

No. 8:09-cv-02232-AW (D. Md. Sept. 15, 2010). 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.

AFFIRMED

∗ We previously granted a certificate of appealability as to Tshiwala’s Fourth Amendment claims and denied a certificate of appealability and dismissed the appeal as to all remaining claims.
