OPINION
PER CURIAM:
Tina Ruth Johnson seeks to appeal the district court's order refusing habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1988). Our review of the record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we deny Johnson's motion for bail pending this appeal, deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court.* Johnson v. Murray, No. CA-90-1368-2 (E.D.Va. Oct. 3, 1991). 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.
DISMISSED.
We note that in addition to having no substantive merit, all of Johnson's claims except the one raising the issue of her correct parole date were procedurally defaulted when she failed to appeal the denial of state court habeas relief. See Teague v. Lane, 489 U.S. 288 (1989); Whitley v. Bair, 802 F.2d 1487 (4th Cir.1986), cert. denied, 480 U.S. 951 (1987)
