William F. Allen, Jr., Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     William F. Allen, Jr., appeals the district court’s order dis-

missing his civil action as frivolous. 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. See

Allen v. Time Warner Cable, No. CA-99-177-1 (N.D.W. Va. Nov. 22,

1999).   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
