PER CURIAM:

     Ernest Smith appeals the district court’s order denying relief

on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 1999) complaint.     We have

reviewed the record and the district’s opinion and find no revers-

ible error.    Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the dis-

trict court.    See Smith v. Lewis, No. MISC-98-36-2 (E.D. Va. Jan.

8, 1999).     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
