MEMORANDUM*
* Barry Wayne McNamara appeals the district court's denial of his habeas corpus petition. He claims he was denied a fair trial when the state trial court failed sua sponte to hold a hearing to determine whether he was competent to stand trial. He also contends the prosecutor improperly interfered with his Sixth Amendment right to counsel by filing a motion to have his attorney removed from the case, and that his attorney provided ineffective assistance by failing to request a competency hearing.
II
We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 2253 (1988), and we affirm for the reasons stated in the magistrate's "Report and Recommendation" dated March 31, 1989, adopted by the district court.
AFFIRMED.
