See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant seeks to appeal the magistrate judge's* order
denying relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1988) petition. We have

reviewed the record and the magistrate judge's opinion and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appeal-

ability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the magistrate

judge. Harless v. Murray, No. CA-95-308-R (W.D. Va. Nov. 29, 1995).

We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten-

tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court

and argument would not aid the decisional process.

                                                         DISMISSED

     *
       The parties consented to the jurisdiction of a magistrate
judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c)(2) (1988).
