    Walter D. Boykin, Jr., Appellant Pro Se.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Walter D. Boykin, Jr., seeks to appeal the district courts
    order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. 2254
    (West 1994 & Supp. 1998).

    We have reviewed the record and the dis-

    trict courts opinion and find no reversible error.

    Accordingly,

    we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on


    the reasoning of the district court.
    98-630 (E.D.N.C. Aug. 26, 1998).

    See Boykin v. Jarvis, No. CA-

    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
