                         October 5, 2000




         Per   Curiam.    The   district   court   dismissed   the

amended complaint of appellants Scott W. Veale and David T.

Veale, and appellants appealed.       After carefully reviewing

the record and the parties' briefs, we affirm this judgment

for essentially the reasons stated in the district court's

Order, dated September 1, 1999.       We add only that there was

no error in the district court's denial of appellants'

motion for a change of venue.

         Affirmed.   See Local Rule 27(c).
