See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     James Guy Arnold appeals from the district court’s order

dismissing his civil action pursuant to Fed. R. Crim. P. 12(b)(6).

We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and

find no reversible error.    Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning

of the district court.      Arnold v. America Online, No. CA-01-6-3

(N.D.W. Va. Apr. 5, 2001).    Moreover, we deny Arnold’s motions for

appointment of counsel and free copies of the pleadings in this

case.

     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
