    Herbert CHAVIS, Petitioner-Appellant, v. Michael T.W. BELL, Superintendent, Respondent-Appellee.
    No. 01-6443.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
    Submitted July 26, 2001.
    Decided July 31, 2001.
    Herbert Chavis, pro se.
    Clarence Joe DelForge, III, Office of the Attorney General of North Carolina, Raleigh, NC, for appellee.
    
      Before WILKINS, LUTTIG, and TRAXLER, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM.

Herbert Chavis seeks to appeal 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 the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Chavis v. Bell, No. CA-00-515-1 (M.D.N.C. Mar. 1, 2001). 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.
