Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Kelvin Donnell Coward, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Kelvin Donnell Coward seeks to appeal 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 dis-

trict court’s opinion and find no reversible error.    Accordingly,

we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis, deny a certificate of

appealability, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the dis-

trict court. Coward v. Angelone, No. CA-00-1154-AM (E.D. Va. filed

Sept. 5, 2000; entered Sept. 7, 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
