Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

        Cornelius   A.   Tucker   appeals   the   district    court’s    order

denying his motion for release on bail pending disposition of

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.               Tucker v. Johnson,

No. 7:09-cv-00171-sgw-mfu (W.D. Va. June 22, 2009).                 Tucker has

also moved in this court for release pending appeal; we deny the

motion.     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
