No. 01-6386.
United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
Submitted July 12, 2001.
Decided July 20, 2001.
Ronnie Small, pro se. Clarence Joe Del-Forge, III, Office of the Attorney General of North Carolina, Raleigh, NC, for appellee.
Before WILLIAMS, MICHAEL, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Ronnie Small seeks to appeal the district court's order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp.2000). We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Small v. Okonek-Smith, No. CA-00-52 (E.D.N.C. Jan. 17, 2001). 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.
