    PER CURIAM:
    Fletcher Lewis Farrar appeals the district courts order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. 2254 (West
    1994 & Supp. 1998). We have reviewed the record and the district
    courts 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. Farrar v. North Carolina Attorney General, No.
    CA-97-313-2 (M.D.N.C. Feb. 6, 1998). 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
