PER CURIAM:
Kedric Lamar Whitmore appeals the district court’s order
denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2000).
We have reviewed the record accepting the recommendation of the
magistrate judge and conclude that Whitmore has not made a
substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right. See
Whitmore v. Condon, No. CA-01-4407-3-24BC (D.S.C. July 31, 2002).
Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the
appeal for the reasons stated by the district court. 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
