v.
WARDEN, MARYLAND PENITENTIARY; Attorney General of the
State of Maryland, Respondents-Appellees.

No. 88-7549.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Submitted: Aug. 16, 1988.
Decided: Nov. 10, 1988.

Nicholas Thomas Savko, Jr., appellant pro se.

Valerie Watkins Loftin (Office of the Attorney General of Maryland), for appellees.

Before WIDENER, SPROUSE and WILKINSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

1

Nicholas Thomas Savko, Jr. seeks to appeal the district court's order refusing habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254. Our review of the record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate 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. Savko v. Warden, C/A No. 85-2995-JH (D.Md. Oct. 30, 1987). We dispense with oral argument because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively.

DISMISSED.
