    No. 88-7146.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted: Dec. 21, 1988.
    Decided: Jan. 17, 1989.

    James M. Bullock, appellant pr se.


    Thomas Drummond Bagwell (Office of the Attorney General), for
    appellee.
    Before DONALD RUSSELL and SPROUSE, Circuit Judges, and
    BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.
    PER CURIAM:

    James M. Bullock seeks to appeal the district court's order refusing habeas
    corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254. Our review of the record and the
    magistrate's opinion 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 magistrate. Bullock v. Thompson, C/A No. 88-0034-R
    (E.D.Va. May 3, 1988). 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.
