Plaintiff-appellant Thomas H. Roberts, d/b/a A.C. Electric ("Roberts") appeals from an order entered February 27, 1995 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of New York that granted a motion by defendant-appellee I.B.E.W. Local 910 AFL-CIO ("Local 910") for summary judgment and denied Roberts' cross-motion for summary judgment.  Roberts' complaint sought a declaratory judgment that no contractual relationship existed between him and Local 910, and punitive and compensatory damages.  We affirm substantially for the reasons stated by Chief Judge McAvoy on the record at a hearing held February 13, 1995.  See Roberts v. I.B.E.W. Local 910 AFL-CIO, No. 94-CV-963, transcript of hearing (N.D.N.Y. Feb. 13, 1995).  Local 910's motion for double costs and attorney fees pursuant to Fed.  R.App. P. 38 is denied.
