Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Mark Keith Hylton seeks to appeal from the district court’s

order denying his motion for reconsideration of the denial of his

petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 1999).

With his motion for reconsideration, Hylton presented an affidavit,

which he contends constitutes new evidence of his innocence.     We

have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find

no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appeal-

ability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district

court.   See Hylton v. Angelone, No. CA-98-329-7 (W.D. Va. Dec. 17,

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
