PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals the district court's order denying relief on
his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1994), amended by Anti-
terrorism 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 and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny
a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the rea-
soning of the district court. Breakley v. Hinkle, No. CA-95-1786
(E.D. Va. July 31, 1996). We dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-
terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
