PER CURIAM:
Anse C. Blake appeals the district court’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 district court’s
opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of
appealability and dismiss on the reasoning of the district court.
See Blake v. Fox, No. CA-98-1118-3 (S.D.W. Va. Mar. 15, 2000). We
also deny Blake’s motion for appointment of counsel. 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
