                               2
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the district court's order (1) denying his

motion for reconsideration of a prior order denying his motion for

appointment of counsel and (2) denying his motion for recusal. Our

review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the
district court. Watkis v. Stone, No. CA-95-91-A (E.D. Va. Oct. 7,
1996). 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.
