Glendale MORE, Jr., Appellant,v.STATE of Iowa, Appellee.
No. 93-2947.
United States Court of Appeals,Eighth Circuit.
Submitted:  January 11, 1994.Filed:  January 24, 1994.

Before BOWMAN, Circuit Judge, BRIGHT and ROSS, Senior Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.


1
Glendale More was convicted of first-degree murder in Scott County, Iowa, in 1984.  He filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus, 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 (1988), which the District Court1 denied on the merits.  More appeals, arguing that he was denied his Sixth Amendment right to confront a witness against him because he was not permitted to cross-examine a key government witness about that witness's juvenile record, and that his counsel was ineffective for failing to raise the issue on direct appeal.


2
We hold that More is precluded from raising these issues in a federal habeas claim, as he failed to raise any claims in a state post-conviction proceeding.  More admits he cannot demonstrate the necessary cause and prejudice to overcome the procedural bar.


3
We conclude that an opinion in this case would be of no precedential value.  The judgment of the District Court is affirmed.  See 8th Cir.  R. 47B.
