PER CURIAM:
Advertisement
Samuel Johnson Bell seeks to appeal from the district court's judgment denying relief under 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 and order denying his "Motion for New Trial and Amendment of Judgment," which the court construed as a motion under Fed.R.Civ.P. 59(e). 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 and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Bell v. Garraghty, CA-89-436-R (E.D.Va. May 7, 1990). 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
