PER CURIAM:

       George A. Cole, II, appeals the district court’s order denying

relief in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) action.            We have reviewed the

existing record and find no basis for appellate relief.                Graham v.

Connor, 490 U.S. 386, 396 (1989); Anderson v. Russell, 247 F.3d

125,    129   (4th    Cir.),   cert.   denied,     534    U.S.   125    (2001).

Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order.               See Cole v.

Mrotek, No. CA-01-2626 (D. Md. Sept. 5, 2002).              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
