Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's orders denying
relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1994) (current
version at 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 1997)) and denying
his motion for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and the
district court's orders and find no reversible error. Accordingly,
we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal and dismiss the
appeals on the reasoning of the district court. Turner v. Kuyken-
dall, No. CA-96-131-R (W.D. Va., July 8, and Sept. 8, 1997). See
Lindh v. Murphy, 521 U.S. ___, 1997 WL 338568 (U.S. June 23, 1997)
(No. 96-6298). 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
