    v.
    Jim G. BULLOCK, Attorney General of the State of North
    Carolina, Respondents-Appellees.
    No. 89-6545.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted April 18, 1989.
    Decided May 11, 1989.

    Fred Murphy, appellant pro se.


    Richard Norwood League, Clarence Joe DelForge, III, Office of the
    Attorney General of North Carolina, for appellees.
    Before MURNAGHAN, CHAPMAN, and WILKINS, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:

    Fred Murphy 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.
    Murphy v. Bullock, C/A No. 88-295-HC (E.D.N.C. Feb. 13, 1989). We
    dispense with oral argument because the dispositive issues recently have been
    decided authoritatively.
    DISMISSED.
