    The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals dismissed an appeal from a district court's refusal to grant habeas corpus relief. The appellate court found the appeal to be without merit after reviewing the record and district court opinion. The dispositive issues had already been authoritatively decided, so the Fourth Circuit denied a certificate of probable cause to appeal, dismissed the appeal, and dispensed with oral argument based on the reasoning of the district court.

    John Wilbur PARKER, Petitioner-Appellant,
    v.
    ATTORNEY GENERAL OF SOUTH CAROLINA,
    Respondent-Appellee.
    No. 88-6509.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted April 14, 1988.
    Decided May 9, 1988.

    John Wilbur Parker, appellant pro se.


    Frank Louis Valenta, Jr., Assistant Attorney General, for appellee.
    Before SPROUSE and CHAPMAN, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER,
    Senior Circuit Judge.
    PER CURIAM:

    A review of the record and the district court's opinion accepting the
    magistrate's recommendation discloses that this appeal from its order refusing
    habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 is without merit. Because
    the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively, we deny a
    certificate of probable cause to appeal, dispense with oral argument, and
    dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Parker v. Attorney
    General of South Carolina, C/A No. 87-591-B (D.S.C. Dec. 17, 1987).

    DISMISSED.
