Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying

relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1994) (current

version at 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 1997)). We have

reviewed the record and the district court's opinion accepting in

part the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no revers-
ible error. Accordingly, we deny Appellant's request for appointed

counsel, deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal and dismiss

the appeal. See Lindh v. Murphy, 521 U.S. ___, 65 U.S.L.W. 4557
(U.S. June 23, 1997) (No. 96-6298). 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 deci-
sional process.

                                                         DISMISSED
