PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals from the magistrate judge's order denying

relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988) complaint. We have reviewed

the record and the magistrate judge's opinion and find no rever-
sible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the magis-

trate judge.* Walls v. Hamilton Beach/Proctor-Silex, Inc., No. CA-
94-336-CV-3 (M.D.N.C. Aug. 3, 1995). 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




     *
       The parties consented to the jurisdiction of a magistrate
judge under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (1988).
