    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Alexandria. Claude M. Hilton, Chief District
    Judge. (CA-00-1189)

    Submitted:

    January 18, 2001

    Decided:

    January 25, 2001

    Before WIDENER and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior


    Circuit Judge.

    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


    Robert Lawrence Taylor, Appellant Pro Se.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Robert Lawrence Taylor appeals the district courts order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. 2254 (West
    1994 & Supp. 2000).

    We have reviewed the record and the district

    court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny


    a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.

    Taylor v. Director, Virginia Dept

    of Corrections, No. CA-00-1189 (E.D. Va. Oct. 5, 2000).

    We deny

    leave to proceed in forma pauperis and 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
