PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the district court’s order denying relief on

his motion for enlargement of time to file a petition under 28

U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 1998). We have reviewed the dis-

trict court’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. Howard v. Corcoran, No. CA-97-

1421-PJM (D. Md. Oct. 8, 1997). 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 deci-

sional process.

                                                         DISMISSED
