Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 924 F.2d 1053 (4th Cir. 1991) Submitted Jan. 2, 1991. Decided Jan. 31, 1991

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina, at Greensboro. Eugene A. Gordon, Senior District Judge. (CA-89-4-G)

Kelvin W. Sellars, appellant pro se.

Richard Norwood League, Office of the Attorney General of North Carolina, Raleigh, N.C., for appellees.

M.D.N.C.

DISMISSED.

Before PHILLIPS, SPROUSE and CHAPMAN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:


Kelvin W. Sellars seeks to appeal 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 judge discloses that this appeal is without merit.*  Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Sellars v. Lee, CA-89-4-G (M.D.N.C. May 11, 1990). 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.
