Marion David Melville, Appellant Pro Se.

See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Marion David Melville appeals the district court’s order deny-

ing his motion for reconsideration of the order denying his motion

for reconsideration of the original judgment dismissing his peti-

tion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 1998).    We

have reviewed the record and the district court’s oder and find no

reversible error.    Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court.     See Melville v. Angelone, No. CA-98-566-R (W.D.

Va. Nov. 10, 1998).     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.
