PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the district court’s order granting Ap-

pellees’ motion to dismiss under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure

12(b)(6). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the

reasoning of the district court. Goodman v. Jones, Blechman, Woltz

& Kelly, P.C., No. CA-97-31-4 (E.D. Va. Apr. 13, 1998). 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.
