PER CURIAM:

     James Everette Treece, Jr., seeks to appeal the district

court’s   order   denying   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 accepting the recommen-

dation 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 Treece v. At-

torney General, No. CA-99-491 (M.D.N.C. June 14, 2000).             We dis-

pense 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

                                     2
