PER CURIAM:

     William Earl Sanders, a North Carolina inmate, appeals the

district court’s order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983

(West Supp. 2000) complaint under 28 U.S.C.A. § 1915A (West Supp.

2000).   We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opin-

ion and find no reversible error.    Accordingly, we affirm on the

reasoning of the district court.     See Sanders v. Lee, No. CA-99-

727-5-F (E.D.N.C. May 18, 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.
