Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Larry McLeod appeals the district court’s order denying relief

on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint.         We have reviewed the

record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the

reasoning of the district court.       See McLeod v. Walker, No. CA-01-

195-1-MU (W.D.N.C. Sept. 18, 2002). 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
