PER CURIAM:

     Daryl Ricardo Ricks appeals the district court’s order denying

relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 &

Supp. 2000).   We have reviewed the record and the district court's

opinion and find no reversible error.   Accordingly, we deny a cer-

tificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning

of the district court.   See Ricks v. Director of Virginia Dep’t of

Corrections, No. CA-99-333-AM (E.D. Va. May 23, 2000).   We further

deny Ricks’ motions for appointment of counsel.   We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-

ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.

                                                         DISMISSED
