    Morris RIDDICK, Jr., Petitioner-Appellant,
    v.
    Edward W. MURRAY, Director of the Virginia Department of
    Corrections, Respondent-Appellee.
    No. 87-7595.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted: April 29, 1988.
    Decided: May 26, 1988.

    Morris Riddick, Jr., appellant pro se.


    Katherine Baldwin Toone (Office of the Attorney General), for appellee.
    Before JAMES DICKSON PHILLIPS, MURNAGHAN and ERVIN,
    Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:

    Morris Riddick, Jr. seeks to appeal the district court's order refusing habeas
    corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254. Our review of the record and the
    district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate
    discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of
    probable cause to appeal and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district
    court. Riddick v. Murray, C/A No. 86-865-N (E.D.Va. Apr. 20, 1987). 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.
