See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Lewis L. Pendleton, II, a Virginia prisoner, appeals the dis-
trict court’s order denying relief on his action asserting that the
Virginia Parole Board violated the Ex Post Facto Clause when, upon
revoking his parole, it likewise revoked his previously earned good
time credits. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s
opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Pendle-
ton’s motion for appointment of counsel, deny a certificate of
appealability, and dismiss on the reasoning of the district court.
See Pendleton v. Thompson, No. CA-99-291 (W.D. Va. Feb. 16, 2000);
see also Warren v. Baskerville, 233 F.3d 204 (4th Cir. 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
