PER CURIAM:

     Appellants appeal the district court's order dismissing their

civil action. We have reviewed the record and the district court's

opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Appel-

lants' motion for summary reversal and affirm on the reasoning of

the district court. Strahler v. Townsley, No. CA-96-1797-AMD (D.
Md. Sept. 30, 1996). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
