PER CURIAM:

     Irma Jo Draughon appeals the district court’s order dismissing

her complaint against the Sampson County Department of Social Ser-

vices as frivolous under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii) (West Supp.

2000).     We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm the dismissal of Draughon’s complaint based

on the reasoning of the district court.      See Draughon v. Social

Services, No. CA-00-177-7-F (E.D.N.C. Sept. 26, 2000).      Sampson

County Department of Social Services’ motion to dismiss and impose

sanctions is denied.     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.




                                                            AFFIRMED
