PER CURIAM:

     Daniel A. Young, Sr., appeals the district court’s order deny-

ing relief on Young’s civil complaint. We have reviewed the record

and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, although we grant Young’s motion to expedite the ap-

peal to the extent possible given the court’s busy docket, we

affirm on the reasoning of the district court.   Young v. Kennedy,

No. CA-00-51-5-BR (E.D.N.C. May 12, 2000).   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.
