Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     David Ray Hubbard seeks to appeal 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 accepting the recommendation of the magistrate

judge and find no reversible error.   Accordingly, we deny leave to

proceed in forma pauperis, deny the motion for a certificate of

appealability, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the dis-

trict court.   See Hubbard v. Painter, No. CA-99-328-5 (S.D.W. Va.

Mar. 6, 2000).   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
