PER CURIAM:
Joseph Johnson, Jr., seeks to appeal the district court’s
orders denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A.
§ 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 2000), denying his motion to reconsider
under Fed. R. Civ. P. 59, and denying his request for a hearing.
We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinions and
orders and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a cer-
tificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning
of the district court. Johnson v. Angelone, No. CA-99-876-3 (E.D.
Va. Mar. 7, June 15 & July 10, 2000). 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
