PER CURIAM:

     Debbie Luke appeals the district court’s order denying relief

on her 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2002) 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. Luke v. Dare County, North Carolina, No. CA-01-15-

2-H-2 (E.D.N.C. Feb. 6, 2002).         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.
