    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted: Oct. 28, 1988.
    Decided: Dec. 22, 1988.

    Lewis Searles, Jr., appellant pro se.


    Richard Norwood League (Office of the Attorney General), for appellee.
    Before DONALD RUSSELL, WILKINSON and WILKINS, Circuit
    Judges.
    PER CURIAM:

    Lewis Searles, Jr. seeks to appeal the district court's orders refusing habeas
    corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254. Our review of the record and the
    district court's opinion and order discloses that this appeal is without merit.
    Accordingly, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal and dismiss the
    appeals on the reasoning of the district court. Searles v. Allen, C/A No. 88-36A-C (W.D.N.C. Apr. 14, 1988; May 16, 1988). 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.
