See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Reginald Thomas Harrison seeks to appeal the magistrate

judge's* order denying relief on his petition under 28 U.S.C.
§ 2254 (1994), as amended by Antiterrorism and Effective Death
Penalty Act of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104-132, 110 Stat. 114. We have

reviewed the record and the magistrate judge's opinion and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of probable

cause and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the magistrate

judge. Harrison v. Angelone, No. CA-95-648-3 (E.D. Va., Mar. 14,

1996). To the extent necessary we also deny a certificate of ap-

pealability. 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

    *
      The parties consented to disposition by a magistrate judge
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (1994).
