Attorney General, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

       Dan Oliver 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 district court’s

opinion and find no reversible error.             Accordingly, we deny a

certificate    of   appealability    and    dismiss   the    appeal    on   the

reasoning of the district court. Oliver v. Braxton, No. CA-01-349-

AM (E.D. Va. filed Nov. 8, 2001 & entered Nov. 9, 2001).              Oliver’s

motion for return of legal documents is denied.             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




                                      2
