Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Timothy L. Massie seeks to appeal 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

Massie’s motion for a certificate of probable cause, deny a cer-

tificate of appealability, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning

of the district court.   Massie v. Sacchet, No. CA-01-136-CCB (D.

Md. June 19, 2001).   We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

                                                         DISMISSED
