ATTORNEY GENERAL OF NORTH CAROLINA, Raleigh, North Carolina, for
Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the district court’s order denying relief on

his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) complaint. We have reviewed the record

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

cordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Clark

v. Hall, No. CA-97-107-5-BO (E.D.N.C. Dec. 1, 1997). 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
