PER CURIAM:

¶1 Ronnell A. Gregory seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2000). We have independently reviewed the record and conclude on the reasoning of the district court that Gregory has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right. See Gregory v. Johnson, No. CA-04-292 (E.D.Va. Sept. 28, 2004). Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c) (2000). 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.
