PER CURIAM:


1
Cecelia J. Delong appeals from the district court's order dismissing petitioner's action seeking reinstatement of compensation benefits under the Federal Employees Compensation Act.  Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit.  Section 8128(b) of the Act deprives this Court of jurisdiction over this matter.*   See Lindahl v. Office of Personnel Management, 470 U.S. 768 (1985);  Wallace v. United States, 669 F.2d 947 (4th Cir.1982).  Moreover, the district court did not abuse its discretion by dismissing petitioner's case without a hearing, since the jurisdictional facts are apparent from the record.   See Pettis ex rel. United States v. Morrison-Knudsen Co., 577 F.2d 668 (9th Cir.1978);  Professional Construction Consultants v. Grimes, 552 F.Supp. 539 (W.D.Okla.1982).  Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.  Delong v. OWCP, CA-89-87-L (W.D.Va. May 8, 1990).  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.
