Robert Carlyle Berrett, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Robert Carlyle Berrett appeals the district court’s order dis-

missing his civil action for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.

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

agree that there is no subject matter jurisdiction.   Accordingly,

we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.   See Berrett v.

Elmo, No. CA-98-1428-DKC (D. Md. Sept. 14, 2000). We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-

ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.
