    Unpublished Disposition

    NOTICE: Fourth Circuit I.O.P. 36.6 states that citation of

    Walter Henry Joseph GRIFFIN, Petitioner-Appellant,
    v.
    Edward W. MURRAY, Director, Virginia Department of
    Corrections, Respondent-Appellee.
    No. 87-7767.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted: Dec. 30, 1987.
    Decided: Feb. 5, 1988.

    Before DONALD RUSSELL and K.K. HALL, Circuit Judges, and


    BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.
    Walter Henry Joseph Griffin, appellant pro se.
    Robert Quentin Harris, Office of Attorney General, for appellee.
    PER CURIAM:

    A review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal
    from its order refusing habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 is
    without merit. Because the dispositive issues recently have been decided
    authoritatively, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal, dispense with
    oral argument, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.
    Griffin v. Murray, C/A No. 87-253-N (E.D.Va. Nov. 9, 1987).
    DISMISSED
