Jimmie H. Woodson, Sr., Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

       Jimmie H. Woodson, Sr., seeks to appeal the district court’s

order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2000)

complaint.    We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

opinion and find no reversible error.      Accordingly, we dismiss the

appeal on the reasoning of the district court.           See Woodson v.

Gilmore, No. CA-00-952-2 (E.D. Va. Jan. 23, 2001). Furthermore, we

find   this   appeal   frivolous   for   purposes   of   28   U.S.C.A.   §

1915(e)(2), (g) (West Supp. 2000).       We deny Woodson’s motions for

release from incarceration, his motion for transfer, and his motion

to dismiss counsel appointed by the State of Virginia. 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.




                                                                DISMISSED




                                    2
