    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
    No. 98-7770
    EUGENE ARTHUR PORTER, JR.,
    Petitioner - Appellant,
    versus
    H. R. POWELL, Warden,
    Respondent - Appellee.
    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
    District of Virginia, at Richmond. Richard L. Williams, Senior
    District Judge. (CA-98-272-3)
    Submitted:   February 9, 1999              Decided:   March 15, 1999
    Before HAMILTON and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges, and PHILLIPS, Senior
    Circuit Judge.
    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    Reginald Moore Barley, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellant. Hazel
    Elizabeth Shaffer, Assistant Attorney General, Richmond, Virginia,
    for Appellee.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
    See Local Rule 36(c).
    PER CURIAM:
    Appellant seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying
    relief on his petition filed under 
    28 U.S.C.A. § 2254
     (West 1994 &
    Supp. 1998).   We have reviewed the record and the district court’s
    opinion and find no reversible error.     Accordingly, we deny the
    certificate of appealability and dismiss on the reasoning of the
    district court.   See Porter v. Powell, No. CA-98-272-3 (E.D. Va.
    Dec. 3, 1998).    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
