PER CURIAM:

     Believing that Dawn Reaves was wrongfully taken from her

mother's custody and was mistreated while in the custody of various

departments of social services, Dawn and her mother sued, under 42

U.S.C. § 1983, a Juvenile and Domestic Relations judge, two county

departments of social services and their directors, a county school
board and its superintendent, and two private juvenile detention

facilities.   The district court granted summary judgment in favor

of the defendants on the grounds of absolute immunity, derivative

immunity, Eleventh Amendment immunity, lack of state action, and
plaintiffs' failure to exhaust state remedies.   The Reaves appeal

this ruling, arguing that the district court erred in granting

summary judgment.

     We have reviewed the briefs and record in this case, and we

have heard oral argument. Our review persuades us that the rulings

of the district court were correct.      We therefore affirm the
judgment on the reasoning set forth in the district court's exten-

sive and careful memorandum opinion.    Reaves v. Peace, C.A. No.
3:95cv640 (E.D.Va. Mar. 21, 1996).
