PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the district court's order denying relief on

his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) complaint. 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.

Tillman v. Coplin, No. CA-96-938-PJM (D. Md. Nov. 4, 1996). 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.
