ORDER AND JUDGMENT1

1
Before SEYMOUR, Chief Judge, McKAY and BALDOCK, C.J.

2
After examining the Petitioner's brief and appellate record, this panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of this appeal.  See Fed.  R.App. P. 34(a);  10th Cir.  R. 34.1.9.  The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.

3
This is a pro se appeal from the denial of a petition for writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 2254 and the denial of a certificate of probable cause.  We issue a certificate of probable cause and proceed to the merits of Petitioner's appeal.   Barefoot v. Estelle, 463 U.S. 880 (1983).

4
Petitioner raised several issues in the United States District Court.  He appears to be challenging only two of those issues here:  (1) the denial of his right to compulsory process guarantee by the Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution;  and (2) selective prosecution.

5
Having reviewed the record, including arguments, we affirm for substantially the reasons given by the magistrate judge which were adopted by the trial court.

6
AFFIRMED.
