    Alfred Sherman Thomas Jr. appealed the district court's refusal of habeas corpus relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals reviewed the record and district court opinion, which adopted the magistrate judge's recommendation, and found no merit to Thomas' appeal. The Fourth Circuit denied a certificate of probable cause and dismissed the appeal, agreeing with the reasoning of the district court. The facts and legal arguments were adequately explained in the case materials so oral arguments were not necessary.

    No. 91-7311.

    United States Court of Appeals,


    Fourth Circuit.
    Submitted: February 28, 1992
    Decided: March 27, 1992

    Alfred Sherman Thomas, Jr., Appellant Pro Se.


    Thomas Cauthorne Daniel, Assistant Attorney General, Richmond,
    Virginia, for Appellee .
    PER CURIAM:

    Alfred Sherman Thomas, Jr., seeks to appeal the district court's order refusing
    habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 2254 (1988). Our review of the
    record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the
    magistrate judge 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. Thomas v. Muncy, No. CA-90-1905-N (E.D.
    Va. Sept. 9 and Oct. 3, 1991). 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
