PER CURIAM:

1
Lamar Perryman appeals from the district court's order denying his petition for a writ of habeas corpus.  Perryman v. Murray, C/A No. 89-498 (E.D.Va. April 24, 1990).  Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit.  Although the district court did not consider Perryman's April 9 motion to amend, this petition was properly dismissed because Perryman has raised the identical claims, with factual support, in C/A No. 89-501-R.  However, to insure that Perryman's Sec. 2254 petition in No. 89-501-R is not affected by this dismissal, we modify the dismissal in this case, pursuant to our authority under 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2106, to reflect that it is without prejudice.  Accordingly, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal and dismiss the appeal as modified.  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.
