    Vernon MARTIN, Petitioner-Appellant,
    v.
    William D. LEEKE, Commissioner; Attorney General of the
    State of South Carolina, Respondent-Appellee.
    No. 87-7533.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted April 24, 1987.
    Decided June 19, 1987.

    Before RUSSELL and HALL, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior


    Circuit Judge.
    Vernon Martin, appellant pro se.
    William Alva Ready, III, Office of the Attorney General, for appellees.
    PER CURIAM:

    A review of the record and the district court's opinion accepting the
    magistrate's recommendation discloses that an appeal from its order refusing
    habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 would be without merit.
    Because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively, we
    deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal, dispense with oral argument, and
    dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Martin v. Leeke, C/A
    No. 86-2101 (D.S.C., Feb. 3, 1987).

    DISMISSED.
