Lawrence Verline Wilder, Sr., Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Appellant   appeals   the   district   court's   order   dismissing

without prejudice Appellant's breach of contract claim. We have

reviewed the record and the district court's opinions and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court. Wilder v. Runyon, No. CA-97-4056-S (D. Md. Dec. 11,
1997). 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.
