PER CURIAM

1
Appellant seeks to appeal the magistrate judge's order denying relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1994) petition.  We have reviewed the record and the magistrate judge's opinion and find no reversible error.  Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.   Jones v. Hopewell City Circuit Court, No. CA-94-181-R (E.D.Va. Aug. 5, 1994).  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
