    PER CURIAM:
    James Wooten appeals the district courts order denying relief
    on his 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. Wooten v. Powell, No. CA-97-1966-AM (E.D. Va. Mar. 10,
    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
