Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 849 F.2d 605 (4th Cir. 1988) Submitted: April 26, 1988. Decided: June 8, 1988

Warren S. Jernigan, appellant pro se.

Richard Bain Smith (Office of the Attorney General), for appellee.

Before JAMES DICKSON PHILLIPS, WILKINSON and WILKINS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:


Warren Jernigan appeals from the district court's order refusing habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 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 and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Jernigan v. Murray, C/A No. 87-451-N (E.D. Va. Jan. 13, 1988). We dispense with oral argument because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively.

DISMISSED.
