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Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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:

      Kenneth Shannon appeals the district court’s order denying

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

Supp. 2001).    We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

opinion and find no reversible error.            Accordingly, we deny a

certificate     of   appealability   and    dismiss    the    appeal   on    the

reasoning of the district court.           Shannon v. Garraghty, No. CA-

1323-AM (E.D. Va. filed Sept. 18, 2001; entered Sept. 19, 2001).

We deny Shannon’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal.

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

                                     2
