PER CURIAM:
     Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying

leave to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis. 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. Muhammad v. Hardee's Cross Lanes, No. CA-94-890-2 (S.D.W.

Va. Jan. 31, 1996). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-
terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process. We deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis in this court.
