PER CURIAM:

     Appellants appeal from the district court's order dismissing

their income tax refund suit. Our review of the record and the dis-

trict court's order adopting the report and recommendation of the

magistrate judge discloses no reversible error. Accordingly, we af-

firm on the reasoning of the district court. Beck v. Commissioner,
IRS, No. CA-96-308 (W.D.N.C. June 25, 1997). 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.
