Moore, Jr., Appellants Pro Se. John Harris Douglas, Assistant United States Attorney, Charleston, South Carolina, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c).20 PER CURIAM: This is a consolidated appeal. In case Nos. 96-2324, 96-2325, 96-2365, 96-2610, 96-2698, 96-2699, 96-2700, 96-2720, 96-2721, 96- 2771, and 96-2772, the Appellants appeal the district court's orders granting the Navy summary judgment in their civil action filed under the Privacy Act, see 5 U.S.C. § 552a (1994), and denying their motion styled "Motion for a Status Conference Hearing and Rule 60(b) Errors Correction." In case Nos. 97-1860, 97-1859, 97-1858, and 97-1857, the Appellants appeal only the denial of the motion styled "Motion for a Status Conference Hearing and Rule 60(b) Errors Correction." Finally, the Appellant in No. 97-1768 appeals the district court's order granting counsel's request to be relieved. We have reviewed the record and the district court's thorough and well-reasoned opinions and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.
