PER CURIAM:

     Ronald Floyd Jackson appeals the district court’s order deny-

ing his motion for relief from the district court’s judgment dis-

missing this civil action for failure to effect service of process.

See Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(5).   We have reviewed the record and the

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

ly, we affirm.   See NOW v. Operation Rescue, 47 F.3d 667, 669 (4th

Cir. 1995).   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.
