Frank L. Moody, appellant pro se.

Valerie Valenti Cloutier, Office of Attorney General of Maryland, for appellee.

Before DONALD RUSSELL and WILKINS, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.

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 and affirm the judgment below on the reasoning of the district court. Moody v. Warden, C/A No. 86-3030-JH (D.Md. Aug. 27, 1987).

¶2

AFFIRMED.
