PER CURIAM:

           Mario N. Hughley appeals the district court’s order

dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint pursuant to Fed.

R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6), as barred by the statute of limitations.         We

have reviewed the parties’ briefs and joint appendix and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by

the district court.    See Hughley v. Basham, No. CA-03-85-2 (E.D.

Va. filed Aug. 1, 2003 & entered Aug. 4, 2003).         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
