Before SPROUSE, Circuit Judge, BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge, and ROBERT R. MERHIGE, Jr., Senior United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Virginia, sitting by designation.

PER CURIAM

This matter is before the Court on an appeal from the District Court's denial of appellant's habeas corpus petition for failure to exhaust his claims through the state courts. See Rose v. Lundy, 455 U.S. 509 (1982).

Concluding from the record the district court committed no error in its ruling, we affirm.

AFFIRMED.
