PER CURIAM:
Dennis J. Loftin seeks to appeal the district court’s orders
denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West
1994 & Supp. 2000) and denying reconsideration. We have reviewed
the record and the district court’s orders and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and
dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. See
Loftin v. Angelone, No. CA-00-1581-A (E.D. Va. filed Oct. 4, 2000
& Nov. 13, 2000; entered Oct. 5, 2000 & Nov. 14, 2000). We dis-
pense 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
