Terry Lee Newman v. Toni v. Bair Attorney General of Virginia

819 F.2d 1138 Unpublished Disposition NOTICE: Fourth Circuit I.O.P. 36.6 states that citation of unpublished dispositions is disfavored except for establishing res judicata, estoppel, or the law of the case and requires service of copies of cited unpublished dispositions of the Fourth Circuit. Terry Lee NEWMAN, Petitioner-Appellant, v. Toni V. BAIR; Attorney General of Virginia, Respondent-Appellee. No. 86-6632. United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit. Submitted April 21, 1987. Decided May 29, 1987. Before RUSSELL, HALL and MURNAGHAN, Circuit Judges. Terry Lee Newman, appellant pro se. Robert Homer Anderson, III, Office of the Attorney General, for appellees. 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. Newman v. Bair, C/A No. 85-635-R (E.D.Va., May 15, 1986). [2] DISMISSED.
