Charles Richard Flint, Appellant Pro Se. Darrell v. McGraw, Jr., Dawn Ellen Warfield, OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF WEST VIR- GINIA, Charleston, West Virginia, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Charles Richard Flint appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 1999). We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion adopting the report and recommendation of the mag- istrate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Flint v. Painter, No. CA-98-691-5 (S.D.W. Va. Sept. 29, 1999). 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. AFFIRMED 2
