PER CURIAM:

     Gary McClain appeals the district court’s order granting the

Defendants’ motions for summary judgment on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983

(West Supp. 2001) complaint.   We have reviewed the record and the

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

ly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.    See McClain

v. Pactiv Corp., No. CA-99-3710-1-22 (D.S.C. July 13, 2001).     We

deny the Appellees’ renewed motions to strike the record as moot.

We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten-

tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court

and argument would not aid the decisional process.




                                                           AFFIRMED
