PER CURIAM:
Istivan Clevondon Douglas 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 accepting the recommendation of the
magistrate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny
a certificate of appealability, deny Douglas’ motion for summary
judgment, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district
court. Douglas v. Attorney Gen., No. CA-96-744-4 (M.D.N.C. Oct. 7,
1997). 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
