PER CURIAM:

     A. Corwin Taylor appeals the district court’s orders adopting

the two reports and recommendation of the magistrate judge and

finally dismissing this civil action.   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

Taylor v. Frazer, No. CA-01-680-3 (E.D. Va. Feb. 25, 2002, May 8,

2002).   We dispense with oral argument and deny Taylor’s pending

motion for the appointment of counsel because the facts and legal

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the

court and argument would not aid the decisional process.



                                                           AFFIRMED
