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 and the order denying his

motion for appointment of counsel. We have reviewed the record and

the district court's opinions and find no reversible error. Accord-

ingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Carter v.
Officers of Roxbury Corr. Inst., No. CA-97-109-PJM (D. Md. Apr 29,

and Jul 8, 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.
