PER CURIAM:

     Harry James Fowler appeals 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 affirm on the reasoning of

the district court.    See Fowler v. Hutchings, No. CA-98-9-5-2-MU

(W.D.N.C. filed Mar. 29, 2001; entered Apr. 4, 2001).   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
