PER CURIAM:

     Maurice A. Davis appeals the district court’s order granting

the Defendants’ Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6) motion and dismissing this

civil action. 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.   See Davis v. City of Clarks-

burg No. CA-99-163 (N.D.W. Va. Nov. 1, 1999).   As Davis’s “summons

in a civil case” is inapropo to this proceeding, we construe it as

a motion for general relief and deny it as such.   We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-

ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.




                                                          AFFIRMED
