PER CURIAM:
           James Edward Williams appeals the district court’s order

denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint.           We have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error.         Accordingly, we

affirm   for   the   reasons   stated   by   the   district   court.   See

Williams v. Wake County, No. CA-01-173-5-BR (E.D.N.C. Jan. 22,

2004).   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
