PER CURIAM:

Forrest Ray Kyle appeals the district court’s orders

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying 

relief on 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. Kyle v. 

McBride, No. 2:02-cv-00010-REM (N.D. W. Va. Oct. 29, 2002; 

Mar. 24, 2009). We deny Kyle’s motion to appoint counsel and 

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
