PER CURIAM:

     Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying

relief on his habeas corpus petition, 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1988), as
amended by Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996,

Pub. L. No. 104-132, 110 Stat. 1217. We have reviewed the record

and the district court's opinion and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal; to

the extent that a certificate of appealability is required, we deny

such a certificate. We dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the
district court. Anderson v. Angelone, No. CA-95-645-R (E.D. Va.

Feb. 6, 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
