    Fourth Circuit.
    Submitted: December 8, 1992
    Decided: March 16, 1993

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of
    Virginia, at Alexandria. T. S. Ellis, III, District Judge. (CA-91-406-AM)
    Leonard J. Hawkins, Appellant Pro Se.
    Richard Bain Smith, Assistant Attorney General, Richmond, Virginia, for
    Appellee.
    E.D.Va.
    DISMISSED.
    Before WILKINSON, HAMILTON, and LUTTIG, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:

    OPINION
    1

    Leonard J. Hawkins seeks to appeal the district court's order refusing habeas
    corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 2254 (1988). Our review of the record and

    the district court's opinion 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. Hawkins v. Murray, No. CA-91406-AM (E.D. Va. July 23, 1992). 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
