PER CURIAM.

Valentino Maghee appeals the district court’s*

 order dismissing Maghee's 28

U.S.C. § 2254 petition challenging for the second time discipline imposed in January

2001 for rule violations he committed while at an Iowa work-release center.

Following careful review, we reject Maghee's argument that he established cause for

his procedural default for the reasons stated by the district court and by this court

during Maghee’s earlier appeal, see Maghee v. Ault, 66 Fed. Appx. 81 (8th Cir. Apr.
