PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying his
motion for reconsideration of the order dismissing his civil com-

plaint claiming that he was subjected to an unlawful wiretap. 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. Owen v. Holden, No. CA-93-139 (W.D.N.C. Jan. 31 &
Feb. 23, 1996). 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
