     *
       Judge Ervin participated in this case but died prior to the
time the decision was filed. The decision is filed by a quorum of
the panel pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 46(d).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the district court’s order denying relief on

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

1999).   We have reviewed the record and the district court's opin-

ion and find no reversible error.     Accordingly, we deny a certifi-

cate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of

the district court.    See Patterson v. Warden, Maryland House of

Corr., No. CA-98-3493-DKC (D. Md. Oct. 30, 1998). We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-

ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.

                                                           DISMISSED
