PER CURIAM:
Rocky Lee Staley seeks to appeal the magistrate judge’s order
denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West
1994 & Supp. 2000). * We have reviewed the record and the magis-
trate judge’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly,
we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on
the reasoning of the magistrate judge. See Staley v. Conley, No.
CA-00-828-1 (M.D.N.C. filed Jan. 25, 2001; entered Jan. 26, 2001).
We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten-
tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court
and argument would not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
