Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of
South Carolina, at Florence. Henry M. Herlong, Jr., District Judge.
(CA-95-3237-4-20)
Submitted:
Decided:
PER CURIAM:
Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying
relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. 2254 (1994) (current
version at 28 U.S.C.A. 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 1997)). We have
reviewed the record and the district court's opinion accepting the
recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma
pauperis, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal and
dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Allen v.
Beardsley, No. CA-95-3237-4-20 (D.S.C. Sept. 19, 1996). See Lindh
v. Murphy, 521 U.S. ___, 1997 WL 338568 (U.S. June 23, 1997) (No.
96-6298). 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
