PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the magistrate judge’s order* denying relief

on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) complaint. We have reviewed the

record and the magistrate judge’s opinion and find no reversible

error. Accordingly, we affirm. Wright v. Fowler, No. CA-96-730

(E.D. Va. Nov. 4, 1997). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.




                                                          AFFIRMED




     *
       The parties consented to the exercise of jurisdiction by a
magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C.A. § 636(c) (West 1993).
