PER CURIAM:

     Leonard Paul Cirincione appeals the district court’s order

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

1994 & Supp. 2000).    We have reviewed the record and the district

court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny

a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the rea-

soning of the district court.   See Cirincione v. Smith, No. CA-99-

328-AW (D. Md. July 30, 1999).        We grant Cirincione’s motion to

file a supplemental brief and have considered his brief in re-

viewing this appeal.    We deny Cirincione’s motion to remand.     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
