See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Rodney Antonio Peele seeks to appeal the district court’s

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

(West 1994 & Supp. 2001).       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 Peele v. Angelone, No. CA-99-

2120-2 (E.D. Va. Mar. 15, 2001).       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

                                   2
