OPINION
PER CURIAM:
1John D. Simpson seeks to appeal the district court's order refusing habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 (1988). Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.* Simpson v. Murray, No. CA-92-341-R (W.D. Va. Oct. 1, 1992). We deny Simpson's motion for 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
*The district court dismissed the case. However, summary judgment should have been granted because matters outside the pleadings were considered
