    Irvin Emanuel COLEMAN, Petitioner-Appellant, v. Ronald J. ANGELONE, Director of the Virginia Department of Corrections, Respondent-Appellee.
    No. 01-6462.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
    Submitted May 31, 2001.
    Decided June 11, 2001.
    Irvin Emanuel Coleman, pro se. Steven Andrew Witmer, Office of the Attorney General of Virginia, Richmond, VA, for appellee.
    Before WILKINS, TRAXLER, and KING, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM.

Irvin Emanuel Coleman 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 leave to proceed in forma pauperis, deny a certificate of appealability, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Coleman v. Angelone, No. CA-00-707-2 (E.D.Va. Feb. 28, 2001). We deny Coleman’s motion for preparation of a transcript at government expense and 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.
