PER CURIAM:

     Belvin M. Page appeals the district court’s order granting

summary judgment to Appellees on his petition filed under 28

U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 1999).    We have reviewed the

record and the district court’s opinion accepting the recommen-

dation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the

appeal on the reasoning of the district court.   See Page v. Moore,

No. CA-98-767-4-12BC (D.S.C. Mar. 30, 1999). 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
