PER CURIAM:

     Charles R. LaBoone seeks to appeal the district court's order

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

1994 & Supp. 1998). 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 certif-

icate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of

the district court. LaBoone v. Angelone, No. CA-96-746-2 (E.D. Va.

Sept. 4, 1997). LaBoone’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis is

granted. 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
