Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Daryl Smith appeals the district court’s orders denying relief

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

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

reasons state by the district court.   See Smith v. Maryland State

Police, No. CA-02-1716-WMN (D. Md. Oct. 8 and Dec. 10, 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
