PER CURIAM:
Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying
relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1994), amended
by Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub. L.
No. 104-132, 110 Stat. 1214. We have reviewed the record and the
district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magis-
trate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny
Appellant's motion for default judgment, deny a certificate of
appealability, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the dis-
trict court. Robinson v. Pruett, No. CA-95-168 (E.D. Va. June 6,
1996). 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
