See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Ron Tearia Nicholas seeks to appeal the district court’s order

denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2000).

We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no

reversible    error.   Accordingly,   we   deny   a   certificate   of

appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the

district court.   See Nicholas v. Miro, No. CA-01-4372-18BG (D.S.C.

filed June 24, 2002, entered June 25, 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
