PER CURIAM:

OPINION
1

Leonard J. Hawkins seeks to appeal the district court's order refusing habeas
corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 2254 (1988). Our review of the record and

the district court'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 district court. Hawkins v. Murray, No. CA-91406-AM (E.D. Va. July 23, 1992). 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
