PER CURIAM:

     Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying

relief on his petition for habeas corpus relief, 28 U.S.C. § 2254

(1988), as amended by Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act
of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104-132, 110 Stat. 1217. We have reviewed the

record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommenda-

tion of the magistrate judge and find no reversible error. Accord-

ingly, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal; to the

extent that a certificate of appealability is required, we deny
such a certificate. We dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the
district court. Crosland v. Davis, No. CA-95-886-17BD (D.S.C.

Dec. 12, 1995). 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
