PER CURIAM:

      William Burrell Smith appeals the district court’s order

granting the Parole Commission’s motion to dismiss his compliant in

which he sought an order compelling certification that his 1954

criminal conviction had been set aside or an order of expungement.

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.    See   Smith   v.   United   States   Parole

Commission, No. CA-01-2829-AMD (D. Md. Mar. 14, 2002). 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
