Charles Lee Skinner, appellant pro se.

Marla Lynn Graff, Office of the Attorney General of Virginia, for appellees.

Before DONALD RUSSELL, WILKINSON, and WILKINS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:


Charles Lee Skinner 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 magistrate's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit.*  Accordingly, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the magistrate. Skinner v. Murray, C/A No. 88-595-R (E.D. Va. Mar. 10, 1989). 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.
