Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     George R. Wertz, Jr., appeals the district court’s orders

denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West

1994 & Supp. 1999) and denying his motion for reconsideration.   We

have reviewed the record and the district court's orders and find

no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appeal-

ability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district

court.   See Wertz v. Moore, No. CA-98-1577-22BE (D.S.C. Sept. 13 &

Oct. 4, 1999).   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
