PER CURIAM:

          Leon Harrell appeals the district court’s orders denying

his disability claim under the Employee Retirement Income Security

Act of 1974, 29 U.S.C. §§ 1001-1168 (2000), his request for

sanctions under 29 U.S.C. § 1132, his requests for attorneys’ fees

and costs, and his request for reconsideration.   We have reviewed

the record and find no reversible error.    Accordingly, we affirm

for the reasons stated by the district court in its various orders.

See Harrell v. CNA Insurance Co., No. CA-99-292-4-12 (D.S.C. filed

Jan 15 and entered Jan. 16, 2003; Jan. 21, 2003; May 14, 2003;

May 15, 2003).   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
