    Eugene Raffaldt, Appellant Pro Se.
    Donald John Zelenka, Chief
    Deputy Attorney General, Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellees.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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 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. Raffaldt v. Ward, No. CA-97-1091-2-23 (D.S.C. Oct. 24,
    1997). 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
