See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying

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

Supp. 1997). 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 ap-
pealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district

court. Baldwin v. North Carolina Attorney Gen., No. CA-97-142-2
(M.D.N.C. Dec. 22, 1997). We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.

                                                         DISMISSED
