v.
David A. GARRAGHTY, Warden, Attorney General of the State of
Virginia, Respondents-Appellees.

No. 87-7170.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Submitted July 31, 1987.
Decided Oct. 15, 1987.

Louis L. Speight, appellant pro se.

Thomas Drummond Bagwell, Office of Attorney General, for appellees.

Before ERVIN, CHAPMAN, and WILKINSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

A review of the record and the magistrate's opinion discloses that an appeal from his order refusing habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 would be without merit. Because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal, dispense with oral argument, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the magistrate. Speight v. Garraghty, C/A No. 87-21-R (E.D.Va., May 21, 1987).

DISMISSED.
