David Belton, Jr., Appellant Pro Se. Ann Norman Bosse, OFFICE
OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF MARYLAND, Baltimore, Maryland, for
Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals the district court's order denying relief on
his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp.
1997). We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion
accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealabil-
ity and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.
Belton v. Waters, No. CA-95-1867-DKC (D. Md. Feb. 27, 1997). We
deny Appellant's motion for appointment of counsel. 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
