PER CURIAM:
Michael S. Parker seeks to appeal the magistrate judge’s
orders denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. §
2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 2000). * We have reviewed the record and
the district court’s opinions and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the
appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Parker v. Director
of Department of Corrections, No. CA-99-875-3 (E.D. Va. Mar. 27 &
Apr. 25, 2000). 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
