PER CURIAM:

     Robert Lawrence Taylor appeals the district court’s order

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

1994 & Supp. 2001).   We have reviewed the record and the district

court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny

a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the

reasoning of the district court.       Taylor v. Director Va. Dep’t of

Corrections, No. CA-00-1188 (E.D. Va. filed Oct. 5, 2000; entered

Oct. 6, 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
