No. 96-2600NI.
United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.
April 23, 1997.

Before ARNOLD, Chief Judge, FAGG, and MURPHY, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.


1
Atwell Jr. Conner appeals the district court's denial of Conner's third application for a writ of habeas corpus.  Conner contends his ineffective assistance of counsel claims are not abusive and, alternatively, the claims should be heard to avoid a miscarriage of justice.  Having considered the briefs and record in this case, we conclude Conner's arguments lack merit.  Finding no error of law in the district court's analysis, we affirm for the reasons stated in its order.  See 8th Cir.  R. 47B.
