PER CURIAM:

     Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying

relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 &

Supp. 1997) (No. 97-7772). We have reviewed the record and the dis-

trict court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magis-

trate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a
certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal in No. 97-7772

on the reasoning of the district court. Price v. Woodard, No. CA-
97-134-5-H (E.D.N.C. Nov. 14, 1997).

     Appellant also appeals the district court's denial of a

certificate of appealability (No. 97-7868). Finding no substantial
showing of the denial of a constitutional right, we further deny a

certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal in No. 97-7868

on the reasoning of the district court. Price v. Woodard, No. CA-

97-134-5-H (E.D.N.C. Dec. 9, 1997). 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 deci-

sional process.

                                                         DISMISSED
