AFFIRMED.
Before WIDENER, JAMES DICKSON PHILLIPS and MURNAGHAN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:


1
Wilbur H. Friedman appeals from the district court's order denying relief under 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983.  Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit.  Accordingly, we affirm based upon the district court's conclusion that Friedman's claims were barred by res judicata and collateral estoppel.  Friedman v. Ferguson, C/A No. 86-3640 (D.Md. Sept. 28, 1987).  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.  Appellant's motions to file a reply brief and for the Court to take judicial notice of three documents (an order of the Circuit Court for Montgomery County filed July 29, 1987, a letter dated May 14, 1986, and an application for a dog fancier's license) are granted.

AFFIRMED.
