Jackie Ray Beasley, appellant pro se.

James Bradley Russell, Office of the Attorney General, for appellees.

Before DONALD RUSSELL, WIDENER and PHILLIPS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

¶1

A review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that an appeal from its order refusing habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 would be without merit.* Because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively, we deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal, dispense with oral argument, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Beasley v. Holland, C/A No. 2:85-547 (S.D.W.Va., Dec. 2, 1986).

¶2

DISMISSED.

*

Beasley has filed two motions for appointment of counsel. Finding that this case presents no circumstances necessitating the assistance of counsel, those motions are denied
