    Christopher David Merhaut, Appellant Pro Se.
    E.D.Va.
    DISMISSED.
    Before WILKINSON, NIEMEYER, and LUTTIG, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:

    OPINION
    1

    Christopher Merhaut seeks to appeal the district court's order refusing habeas
    corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C.s 2254 (1988). Our review of the record and
    the district court'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 district court. Merhaut v. Williams, No. CA-92-

    466-AM (E.D. VA. June 18, 1992). 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
