Simon Peter Chesson, Petitioner-appellant, v. Attorney General of the State of North Carolina; State Ofnorth Carolina, Respondents-appellees, 850 F.2d 688 (4th Cir. 1988)

Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 850 F.2d 688 (4th Cir. 1988) Submitted: Jan. 29, 1988. Decided: June 21, 1988

Simon Peter Chesson, appellant pro se.

Richard Norwood League, Office of the Attorney General, for appellee.

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

PER CURIAM:


A review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that an appeal from its order refusing habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 would be without merit. Because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal, dispense with oral argument, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Chesson v. State of North Carolina, C/A No. 86-921-HC (E.D.N.C. June 18, 1987).

DISMISSED.
