    Pete X. Smith appealed the district court's denial of his application for habeas corpus relief to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. The three-judge panel reviewed the record and found no reversible error in the district court's reasoning. As unpublished opinions are not binding, the panel affirmed the denial based on the district court's opinion, which found Smith did not qualify for habeas corpus relief under federal law. The panel dispensed with oral arguments as the facts and legal issues were clear in the materials.
