PER CURIAM:
Advertisement
Larry Cordell Serious seeks to appeal the district court's order dismissing without prejudice his petition filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1988) for failure to exhaust state court remedies. 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. Serious v. Commonwealth of Va., No. CA-92-1008-AM (E.D. Va. Aug. 26, 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
