See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Christopher Angelo Burke 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 dis-

trict court’s opinion accepting the recommendation of a magistrate

judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certif-

icate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of

the district court.   See Burke v. Angelone, No. CA-01-123-2 (E.D.

Va. Oct. 25, 2001). We deny Burke’s motions for various injunctive

relief and for appointed counsel.     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
