Kenneth Wayne Woodfin, Appellant Pro Se.     Richard Bain Smith,
Assistant Attorney General, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Kenneth Wayne Woodfin appeals the magistrate judge’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 magistrate

judge’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny

a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the

reasoning of the magistrate judge.    See Woodfin v. Angelone, No.

CA-01-444 (E.D. Va. Mar. 7, 2002).   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

     *
       The parties consented to the exercise of jurisdiction by a
magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (1994).
