PER CURIAM:

¶1

A review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal from its order refusing habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 is without merit. Because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively, we dispense with oral argument, deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal and dismiss the judgment below on the reasoning of the district court. Johnson v. Bair, C/A No. 86-0188-R (E.D. Va., Sept. 29, 1986).

DISMISSED.1

The appellant's 'Motion to Accept Supplemental Affidavit' is granted and the Affidavit was considered in our decision of this case
