    PER CURIAM:
    Bobby Williams seeks to appeal the district court's order
    denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. 2254 (West
    1994 & Supp. 1997). We have reviewed the record and the district
    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. Williams v. Freeman, No. CA-96-827-5-F3
    (E.D.N.C. Feb. 14, 1997). 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
