PER CURIAM:

     Edward Thomas Illsley appeals the district court’s order

granting summary judgment for the Government in this forfeiture

action brought under 18 U.S.C. § 492 (1994).    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 United States v. All Equipment, Materials and Devices,

No. CA-98-54-3 (E.D. Va. Sept. 29, 1998).      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
