PER CURIAM:

     Appellants appeal the district court's order entering judgment

for Appellee and awarding him damages in this action filed pursuant
42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994). We have reviewed the record and the dis-

trict court's opinion accepting the magistrate judge's recommen-

dation as to the merits of Appellee's privacy claim and find no

reversible error. We further find that the damages awarded did not

constitute an abuse of discretion. Accordingly, we affirm on the

reasoning of the district court. Joyner v. Murray, No. CA-93-583-R
(W.D. Va. May 30, 1995). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.
