    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS


    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

    No. 01-6722

    ROBERT D. COOK,
    Petitioner - Appellant,
    versus
    LLOYD L. WATERS, Warden; ATTORNEY GENERAL OF
    THE STATE OF MARYLAND,
    Respondents - Appellees.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of
    Maryland, at Baltimore. Andre M. Davis, District Judge. (CA-002318-AMD)

    Submitted:

    October 24, 2001

    Decided:

    November 13, 2001

    Before NIEMEYER, LUTTIG, and KING, Circuit Judges.

    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


    Robert D. Cook, Appellant Pro Se. John Joseph Curran, Jr., Attorney
    General, Celia Anderson Davis, OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF
    MARYLAND, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellees.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Robert D. Cook seeks to appeal the district courts order
    denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. 2254 (West
    1994 & Supp. 2001).

    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 substantially
    on the reasoning of the district court.

    See Cook v. Waters, No.

    CA-00-2318-AMD (D. Md. Mar. 22, 2001). 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
