Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

      Kenneth Mitan appeals the district court’s order denying his

motion to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction and entering a civil

judgment against him for $147,056.67.         On appeal, Mitan only al-

leges that the district court erred in finding that it had personal

jurisdiction over him; he raises no issues related to the amount or

propriety of the judgment itself.        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.

Freund v. Mitan, No. CA-98-107-7 (W.D. Va. June 7, 1999) (denying

motion to dismiss for reasons as stated from the bench).            We dis-

pense 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
