Deputy Attorney General, Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Kedric Lamar Whitmore appeals the district court’s order

denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2000).

We have reviewed the record accepting the recommendation of the

magistrate    judge   and   conclude       that   Whitmore   has    not   made   a

substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.                 See

Whitmore v. Condon, No. CA-01-4407-3-24BC (D.S.C. July 31, 2002).

Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the

appeal for the reasons stated by the district court.               See 28 U.S.C.

§ 2253(c) (2000). 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
