Roger Bruce Herrell, Appellant Pro Se.      Richard Carson Vorhis,
OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF VIRGINIA, Richmond, Virginia, for
Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Roger Bruce Herrell appeals the magistrate judge’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 magistrate

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

a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the

reasoning of the magistrate judge.   See Herrell v. Angelone, No.

CA-01-24 (E.D. Va. filed Nov. 19, 2001; entered Nov. 20, 2001).   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

     *
       This case was decided by a magistrate judge exercising
jurisdiction upon consent of the parties. 28 U.S.C.A. § 636(c)
(West 1993 & Supp. 2001).
