PER CURIAM:

     Ted   Anthony   Prevatte    appeals   the   district   court’s   order

denying relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 1999) com-

plaint. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opin-

ion accepting the magistrate judge’s recommendation and find no

reversible error.    Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court.      See Prevatte v. Clayburn, No. CA-98-134-5-BR

(E.D.N.C. Mar. 2, 1999).        We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.
