PER CURIAM:
This is a consolidated appeal in which the Appellant, a West
Virginia inmate, appeals the district court's orders denying relief
on his two petitions 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 records and the
district court's opinions and find no reversible error. According-
ly, we deny certificates of appealability and dismiss the appeals
on the reasoning of the district court. Barlow v. Herron, No. CA-
96-56-2 (N.D.W. Va. Sept. 24, 1996); Barlow v. Herron, No. CA-96-
79-2 (N.D.W. Va. Oct. 16, 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 deci-
sional process.
DISMISSED
