See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     John T. Scott appeals the district court’s order denying

relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2000) complaint.   We

have reviewed the record and the district’s opinion and find no

reversible error.   Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court.   Scott v. Swann, No. CA-00-711-5-BO (E.D.N.C. Nov.

13, 2000).    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
