Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


Guy T. LeGrande, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant, a North Carolina inmate, appeals the district

court’s order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) com-

plaint under 28 U.S.C.A. § 1915A (West Supp. 1998). We have

reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find that

this appeal is frivolous. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal on the

reasoning of the district court. LeGrande v. Hogewood, No. CA-98-

334-5-BR (E.D.N.C. Apr. 27, 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 deci-

sional process.




                                                         DISMISSED
