PER CURIAM:

1
Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1988), amended by Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub.L. No. 104-132, 110 Stat. 1214, petition.  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 such a certificate of appealability is required, we deny such a certificate.  We dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.   Pajot v. Huffman, No. CA-95-706-R (W.D.Va. Mar. 1, 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
