Submitted March 27, 1997.Decided April 3, 1997.

Edward Lee Bragg, Appellant Pro Se.
Robert H. Anderson, III, OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF VIRGINIA, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.
Before RUSSELL, LUTTIG, and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:

1
Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1994), amended by Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub.L. No. 104-132, 110 Stat. 1214.  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 a certificate of appealability, deny Appellant's motion for a certificate of probable cause to appeal, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.  Bragg v. Angelone, No. CA-95-1033-2 (E.D.Va. Sept. 20, 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.

DISMISSED
