Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern Dis-
trict of Virginia, at Richmond. Robert E. Payne, District Judge.
(CA-97-201)


Submitted:   July 24, 1997                 Decided:   August 6, 1997


Before HAMILTON, LUTTIG, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.


Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


Walter H. Lee, 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Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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 his

workers' compensation claim for lack of jurisdiction. 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. Lee v. District of Columbia, No. CA-97-201 (E.D.
Va. Mar. 19, 1997). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.




                                                        AFFIRMED
