    No. 87-7332.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted: Aug. 26, 1988.
    Decided: Dec. 21, 1988.

    Julius Cornell Pittman, appellant pro se.


    Robert Quentin Harris (Office of the Attorney General), for appellee.
    Before K.K. HALL, JAMES DICKSON PHILLIPS and WILKINSON,
    Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:

    Julius Cornell Pittman seeks to appeal the district court's order refusing habeas
    corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254. Our review of the record and the
    district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate
    discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of
    probable cause to appeal and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district
    court. Pittman v. Murray, C/A No. 86-307-N (E.D.Va. Sept. 1, 1987). 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.
