    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS


    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

    No. 96-6309

    RICHARD A. MASSENBURG,
    Petitioner - Appellant,
    versus
    WARDEN, Greensville Correctional Center,
    Respondent - Appellee.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Richmond. David G. Lowe, Magistrate Judge.
    (CA-95-857)
    Submitted:

    May 16, 1996

    Decided:

    June 6, 1996

    Before RUSSELL, LUTTIG, and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges.


    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    Richard A. Massenburg, Appellant Pro Se. Robert H. Anderson, III,
    OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF VIRGINIA, Richmond, Virginia, for
    Appellee.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Appellant seeks to appeal the magistrate judge's order denying
    relief on his 28 U.S.C. 2254 (1988) petition.* We have reviewed
    the record and the magistrate judge's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability
    and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the magistrate judge.
    Massenburg v. Warden, No. CA-95-857 (E.D. Va. Feb. 8, 1996). 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

    The parties consented to the exercise of jurisdiction by a


    magistrate judge under 28 U.S.C.A. 636(c)(l) (West 1993).
