Kenneth W. Barksdale, Appellant Pro Se.  Mary Kathleen Beatty
Martin, OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF VIRGINIA, Richmond,
Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Kenneth W. Barksdale seeks to appeal the district court’s

order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254

(2000).   We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

memorandum opinion and find no reversible error.   Accordingly, we

deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the

reasoning of the district court.    See Barksdale v. Angelone, No.

CA-00-1726-AM (E.D. Va. Mar. 18, 2002). We deny Barksdale’s motions

to compel discovery and to suppress. 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
