PER CURIAM:
John Wesley Ownby, Jr., appeals the district court’s order
dismissing as untimely his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254
(West 1994 & Supp. 2001). We have reviewed the record and the dis-
trict court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly,
we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on
the reasoning of the district court. See Ownby v. Washington, No.
CA-01-159-7 (W.D. Va. Apr. 19, 2001). 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
