PER CURIAM:

     Allan L. Gant appeals the district court's order dismissing

his action filed under the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C.A.

§ 552 (West 1996 & Supp. 1998), and the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C.A.

§ 552a (West 1996 & Supp. 1998). We have reviewed the record and

the district court’s opinion accepting the magistrate judge's
recommendation and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm

on the reasoning of the district court. Gant v. FOI Officer, No.
CA-96-507-5 (S.D.W. Va. Nov. 24, 1997). 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
