    versus
    WILLIAM L. SMITH, Warden; ATTORNEY GENERAL OF
    THE STATE OF MARYLAND,
    Respondents - Appellees.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of
    Maryland, at Greenbelt. Alexander Williams, Jr., District Judge.
    (CA-95-1822-AW)
    Submitted:

    July 23, 1996

    Decided:

    July 31, 1996

    Before WIDENER, NIEMEYER, and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges.


    Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    Delonte E. Taylor, Appellant Pro Se.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Appellant appeals the district court's order denying relief
    on his habeas corpus petition filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 2254
    (1988), as amended by Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penaly Act
    of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104-132, 110 Stat. 1217. We have reviewed the
    record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Taylor v.
    Smith, No. CA-95-1822-AW (D. Md. Jan. 29, 1996). We deny Appellant's motion for appointment of counsel 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.

    AFFIRMED
