PER CURIAM:

     Nathan Stevens appeals the district court’s order granting

summary judgment in favor of the Trustees of the United Mine

Workers of America 1974 Pension Trust. 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.

Stevens v. Holland, No. CA-99-54-1 (W.D. Va. Apr. 4, 2000).     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
