PER CURIAM.


1
Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's orders denying relief on his 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 (1988) petition and denying reconsideration.  Our review of the record and the district court's opinions discloses no abuse of discretion and 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.  Sims v. Murray, No. CA-94-393-AM (E.D. Va.  June 13, 1994 & July 7, 1994).  We deny Appellant's motion for 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
