    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. Tatum v. North Carolina Attorney Gen., No. CA96-36-6 (M.D.N.C. July 10, 1996). 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
