    PER CURIAM:
    Elizabeth Knewasser seeks to appeal the district courts order
    denying relief on her petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. 2254 (West
    1994 & Supp. 1998). We have reviewed the record and the district
    courts opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny
    a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Knewasser v. Branscun, No. CA-98-488R (W.D. Va. Aug. 6, 1998). 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
