L. No. 104-132, 110 Stat. 114. We have reviewed the record and the magistrate judge's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of probable cause and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the magistrate judge. Harrison v. Angelone, No. CA-95-648-3 (E.D. Va., Mar. 14, 1996). To the extent necessary we also deny a certificate of ap- pealability. 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 * The parties consented to disposition by a magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (1994). 2
