PER CURIAM:
Tywon W. Briscoe seeks to appeal the district court’s order
denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2000).
We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and
conclude on the reasoning of the district court that Briscoe has
not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional
right. See Briscoe v. Buckingham Corr. Ctr., No. CA-00-1080-AM
(E.D. Va. Sept. 27, 2001). Accordingly, we deny a certificate of
appealability and dismiss the appeal. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)
(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
