PER CURIAM:

     Russell Lee Mawyer appeals the district court’s order denying

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

Supp. 2000).   We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and

find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Mawyer’s motion for

a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the

reasoning of the district court. See Mawyer v. Rushton, No. CA-99-

3790 (D.S.C. July 31, 2000).      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
