Derwin Jackson, Appellant Pro Se. Mary Kathleen Beatty Martin,
OFFICE OF 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Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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:

     Derwin Jackson appeals the district court’s order adopting the

magistrate judge’s recommendation to deny relief on his petition

filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 2000).    We have

reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no

reversible error.   Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appeal-

ability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district

court. See Jackson v. Angelone, No. CA-99-366-2 (E.D. Va. Mar. 21,

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
