PER CURIAM:
Wayne Anthony Brooks seeks to appeal the district court’s
orders denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. §
2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 1999). We have reviewed the record and the
district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. According-
ly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal
on the reasoning of the district court. See Brooks v. Corcoran,
No. CA-98-3074-PJM (D. Md. Feb. 3 & Mar. 4, 1999).* 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
*
Brooks’ notice of appeal is timely only as to the February
3 and March 4 orders.
