See Local Rule 36(c).




PER CURIAM:

     Appellant seeks to appeal the district court's order denying

relief in his civil action. 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.* Enand v. Ahmad,
No. CA-96-3471-K (D. Md. Aug. 7, 1997). We also deny Appellant's

motion for appointment of counsel. 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 deci-

sional process.




                                                          AFFIRMED




     *
       To the extent Appellant appeals the district court's mar-
ginal order denying his motion to reconsider, we also deny relief.
