(CA-95-735-R)

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


William A. MacGuire, Appellant Pro Se. Helen Eckert Phillips,
TUCKER & ASSOCIATES, Charlottesville, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying

relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988) complaint. 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. MacGuire v. Proffitt, No. CA-95-735-R (W.D. Va. July 25,
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
