Phillip Small, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

           Phillip   Small   appeals     the   district   court’s    order

dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint for failure to

exhaust administrative remedies.       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. See

Small v. Piland, CA-05-247 (W.D.N.C. Sept. 30, 2005).        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.



                                                                AFFIRMED
