    The United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit dismissed John Simpson's appeal of a district court's denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas corpus petition and Rule 59(e) motion. The district court had denied the habeas petition as time-barred and denied the Rule 59(e) motion. The appeals court reviewed the record and found no reversible error in the district court's rulings. The appeals court therefore denied a certificate of appealability and dismissed the appeal based on the district court's reasoning.

    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS


    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

    No. 00-6199

    JOHN D. SIMPSON,
    Petitioner - Appellant,
    versus
    RONALD J. ANGELONE,
    Respondent - Appellee.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Roanoke. Jackson L. Kiser, Senior District
    Judge. (CA-99-980-7)

    Submitted:

    April 27, 2000

    Decided:

    May 4, 2000

    Before NIEMEYER and MOTZ, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.

    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


    John D. Simpson, Appellant Pro Se.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    John David Simpson seeks to appeal the district court's orders
    (1) denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. 2254
    (West 1994 & Supp. 1999), as time-barred, and (2) denying his motion filed under Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e).

    We have reviewed the rec-

    ord and the district court's opinions and find no reversible error.
    Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the
    appeal on the reasoning of the district court.

    See Simpson v.

    Angelone, No. CA-99-980-7 (W.D. Va. Dec. 29, 1999; Feb. 3, 2000).
    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
