PER CURIAM:

     Appellants appeal the district court’s order denying relief on

their 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2001) 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 Freeland v. Childress, No. CA-99-3552-WMN (D.

Md. Oct. 22, 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
