Before RUSSELL and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges, and PHILLIPS, Senior
Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:
Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying relief on his 28
U.S.C. Sec. 2254 (1988) petition. Our review of the record and the district
court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we
deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal and dismiss the appeal on the
reasoning of the district court. Thomas v. Director, Dep't of Corrections, No.
CA-93-52-R (W.D.Va. Mar. 29, 1994). 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.
