PER CURIAM:

                 Charles T. Sherwin appeals the district court’s orders

dismissing under Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6) his 42 U.S.C. § 1983

(2000) complaint and denying his motion to alter or amend the

judgment. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error

and   no    abuse     of   discretion.      Accordingly,      we    affirm    on   the

reasoning of the district court, see Sherwin v. Piner, No. CA-03-

275-5-H (E.D.N.C. filed July 21, 2003; entered July 22, 2003 &

filed Aug. 11, 2003; entered Aug. 12, 2003), and we deny Sherwin’s

motion for remand.           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
