OPINION
PER CURIAM:


1
Larry James Mullen seeks to appeal the district court's order refusing habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1988).   Our review of the record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge discloses 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.   Mullen v. North Carolina, No. CA-91-289-H (E.D.N.C. Dec. 9, 1991).   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.


2
DISMISSED.
