OPINION

PER CURIAM:

1

James Earl Holston appeals from 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 discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.* Holston v. State of North Carolina, No. CA-92-768-BO (E.D.N.C. Apr. 23, 1993). 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.

AFFIRMED

*

We deny Holston's Motion for Judicial Notice and note that the information contained in the motion would not affect the disposition of his case
