Samuel Wayne Guy, Appellant Pro Se. Clarence Joe DelForge, III, OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF NORTH CAROLINA, Raleigh, North Carolina, for Appellee.

Before MICHAEL and MOTZ, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM:

¶1

Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying relief on his 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 (1988) petition. We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Guy v. Barker, No. CA-94-750-5-H (E.D.N.C. May 1, 1995). We construe Appellant's "Motion for Joinder" as a motion to consolidate this appeal with his appeal in No. 95-7514; we deny the motion because the cases are entirely dissimilar. We deny Appellant's motion for appointment of counsel and dismiss. 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.

¶2

DISMISSED.
