PER CURIAM:

     Kenneth Sidberry seeks to appeal the district court’s order

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

1994 & Supp. 1998).     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 cer-

tificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning

of the district court.      Sidberry v. Bailey, No. CA-97-243-5-F3

(E.D.N.C. Feb. 11, 1998).    We also deny Sidberry’s motion for ap-

pointment of counsel.    We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

                                                           DISMISSED
