Walter Tateatice ROYALS, Plaintiff-Appellant,
v.
Dave Williams, Warden, Attorney General of Virginia,
Defendants-Appellees,

No. 86-6751.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Submitted Oct. 31, 1986.
Decided Dec. 3, 1986.

Before RUSSELL and WILKINS, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.

Walter Tateatice Royals, Appellant pro se.

Robert Homer Anderson, III, for appellees.

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. Royals v. Williams, C/A No. 86-352-R (E.D.Va. August 26, 1986).

DISMISSED.
