PER CURIAM
James E. Galloway appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West 1994 & Supp. 1999). Specifically, Galloway claims that there was insufficient evidence to support his Virginia assault and battery conviction. We have reviewed the record and, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution, we find that any rational trier of fact could have found Galloway guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. See Jackson v. Virginia , 443 U.S. 307, 319 (1979). Consequently, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal. 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
