Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of Virginia, at Alexandria. Leonie M. Brinkema, District
Judge. (CA-01-1117-AM)


Submitted:   November 8, 2001          Decided:     November 20, 2001


Before WILKINS, MICHAEL, and KING, Circuit Judges.


Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


Linwood Harris, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Linwood Harris 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

Harris’ motion for a certificate of appealability and dismiss the

appeal on the reasoning of the district court.      See Harris v.

Angelone, No. CA-01-1117-AM (E.D. Va. Aug. 7, 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
