PER CURIAM:

     Joseph J. Ritch appeals the district court’s order denying

relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2000) complaint.   We

have reviewed the record and the district’s opinion and find no

reversible error.   Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court. Ritch v. Perdue, No. CA-00-880-MJG (D. Md. Oct. 31,

2000).   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
