OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF VIRGINIA, Richmond, Virginia, for
Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

      Dennis Jackson Moore seeks to appeal the district court’s

order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254

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

opinion and conclude on the reasoning of the district court that

Moore has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a

constitutional right. See Moore v. Angelone, No. CA-01-342-3 (E.D.

Va.   Feb.   14,   2002).   Accordingly,   we    deny   a   certificate   of

appealability and dismiss the appeal.           See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)

(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
