    This document summarizes a United States Court of Appeals case from 1995. It states that Marvin David Moore filed a habeas corpus petition under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 challenging his conviction, which was denied by the district court. The appeals court reviewed the record and found no reversible error. It therefore denied Moore's request for a certificate of probable cause to appeal and dismissed the appeal, agreeing with the reasoning of the district court.

    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS


    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

    No. 95-7970

    MARVIN DAVID MOORE,


    Petitioner - Appellant,
    versus
    GEORGE P. DODSON, Warden,
    Respondent - Appellee.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Roanoke. James C. Turk, District Judge. (CA95-770-R)
    Submitted:

    November 19, 1996

    Decided:

    December 2, 1996

    Before MURNAGHAN, HAMILTON, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.


    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    Bruce McCoy Steen, MCGUIRE, WOODS, BATTLE & BOOTHE, Charlottesville, Virginia, for Appellant. Thomas Drummond Bagwell, Assistant
    Attorney General, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying
    relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. 2254 (1994), amended
    by Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub. L.
    No. 104-132, 110 Stat. 1214. We have reviewed the record and the
    district court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly,
    we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal; to the extent
    that a certificate of appealability is required, we deny such a
    certificate. We dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district
    court. Moore v. Dodson, No. CA-95-770-R (W.D. Va. Nov. 1, 1995). 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
