    JOHN WILLIAM SIMMS,


    Petitioner - Appellant,
    versus
    WARDEN SIZER,
    Respondent - Appellee.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of
    Maryland, at Baltimore. Frederic N. Smalkin, District Judge. (CA98-1842-S)

    Submitted:

    September 10, 1998

    Decided:

    September 29, 1998

    Before MURNAGHAN, MICHAEL, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.

    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


    John William Simms, Appellant Pro Se.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying
    relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. 2254 (West 1994 &
    Supp. 1998). We have reviewed the record and the district court's
    opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning
    of the district court. Simms v. Sizer, No. CA-98-1842-S (D. Md.
    July 2, 1998). 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
