PER CURIAM:

     Andree L. Smith appeals from the district court’s order deny-

ing relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 1998) complaint.

We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and

find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning

of the district court. Smith v. Barry, No. CA-98-1602-AMD (D. Md.

May 26, 1998). 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
