Anthony Sexton, Sr., 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Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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:

     Anthony Sexton, Sr., seeks to appeal the district court’s

order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254

(West 1994 & Supp. 1999).   We have reviewed the record and the dis-

trict court’s opinion and find no reversible error.    Accordingly,

we deny his motion for appointment of counsel and his amended

motion for certificate of appealability, deny a certificate of ap-

pealability, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the dis-

trict court. See Sexton v. Angelone, No. CA-98-36-2 (E.D. Va. Mar.

23, 1999).    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
