AFFIRMED.
Before DONALD RUSSELL, K.K. HALL, and MURNAGHAN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:


1
Alex Sandusky Bristol appeals from the district court's order denying relief under 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983.  Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that the district court correctly found Bristol's claims precluded by the final judgment entered on the same claims in state court.  Accordingly, we affirm on the district court's reasoning concerning claim preclusion.  Bristol v. Robinson, C/A No. 87-1361 (D.Md. Oct. 24, 1989).*   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


*
 The district court's opinion of October 24, 1989, incorporated its decision of April 6, 1988, as an alternative ground for dismissal.  Our affirmance rests solely on the district court's finding of claim preclusion
