OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF MARYLAND, Baltimore, Maryland,
for Appellees.

See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

           Steven E. Tarpley appeals the district court’s order

denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint.           We have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error.         Accordingly, we

affirm   for   the   reasons   stated   by   the   district   court.   See

Tarpley v. Kupec, No. CA-02-3461-WMN (D. Md. July 31, 2003).            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
