Steven Ray Young, Petitioner-appellant, v. Steve Hargett, Respondent-appellee, 61 F.3d 917 (10th Cir. 1995)

 Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit - 61 F.3d 917 (10th Cir. 1995) July 19, 1995

Before MOORE, BARRETT, and EBEL, Circuit Judges.

ORDER AND JUDGMENT1 

After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a); 10th Cir. R. 34.1.9. The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.

Petitioner-Appellant Steven Ray Young ("Young") filed a writ of habeas corpus in federal district court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 2254. In his petition, Young requested relief from an Oklahoma state court conviction for robbery with firearms based on eight claims of error. The district court denied Young's petition for writ of habeas corpus, as well as his subsequent request for a certificate of probable cause,2  and Young appealed. The district court opinion thoroughly addressed each of Young's claims, and we adopt its reasoning. Therefore, we AFFIRM the decision of the district court to deny Young's motion for writ of habeas corpus. The mandate shall issue forthwith.
