PER CURIAM:
Isaac Eugene Slappy, a state prisoner, seeks to appeal
the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the
magistrate judge and denying relief on his petition filed under 28
U.S.C. § 2241 (2000). We have reviewed the record and conclude on
the reasoning of the district court that Slappy has not made a
substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right. See
Slappy v. Bazzle, No. CA-05-14-0-DCN (D.S.C. Nov. 22, 2005).
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
