PER CURIAM:

     Curtis Wayne Monroe appeals the district court’s order dis-

missing his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 &

Supp. 2000) as time-barred under the Antiterrorism and Effective

Death Penalty Act (AEDPA).      We have reviewed the record and the

district   court’s   opinion   and    find   no   reversible   error.   See

Hernandez v. Caldwell, 225 F.3d 435 (4th Cir. 2000).            Further, we

conclude Monroe is not entitled to equitable tolling of the AEDPA’s

one-year limitations period.         See Harris v. Hutchinson, 209 F.3d

325 (4th Cir. 2000).     Accordingly, we deny a certificate of ap-

pealability and dismiss the appeal. 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
