NOTICE: Fourth Circuit I.O.P. 36.6 states that citation of unpublished dispositions is disfavored except for establishing res judicata, estoppel, or the law of the case and requires service of copies of cited unpublished dispositions of the Fourth Circuit.

Cornell D. Williams, appellant pro se.

Jillyn Kaberle Schulze, Office of the Attorney General of Maryland, for appellee.

Before DONALD RUSSELL, CHAPMAN, and WILKINSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

¶1

A review of the record and the district court's opinion accepting the magistrate's recommendation 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, decline to appoint counsel, and affirm the judgment on the reasoning of the district court. Williams v. State v. Maryland, C/A No. 86-255-R (D.Md., Nov. 17, 1986).

¶2

AFFIRMED.
