PER CURIAM:

This appeal marks the third time these parties have appeared

before this Court litigating matters arising out of a copyright and

trademark dispute over computer software marketed to the United

States Government. See CACI, Inc. v. Pentagen Techs. Int'l, Ltd.

(In re Robinson), 99 F.3d 1131 (4th Cir. 1996) (unpublished); CACI

Int'l, Inc. v. Pentagen Techs. Int'l, Ltd., 70 F.3d 111 (4th Cir.

1995) (unpublished). In the instant appeal, Mitchell Leiser,

former Vice-President and Director of Pentagen Technologies International, Ltd. (Pentagen), challenges the district court's February

1, 1996 order, which adopted the magistrate judge's recommendation

to hold Leiser in civil contempt for failure to comply with an

earlier order. In the earlier order, entered on September 25,

1995, the magistrate judge concluded that CACI International Technologies, Inc. (CACI) had made out a prima facie case of contempt

and secretion of assets by Leiser and required Leiser to deposit

certain monies into the court registry. CACI cross-appeals the

district court's order of May 3, 1996, denying CACI's motion to

impose sanctions upon Leiser's attorney, Joel Robinson, pursuant to

28 U.S.C.A. § 1927 (West 1994).

After a careful review of the briefs and record, and after

hearing oral arguments from counsel, we conclude that both parties'

appeals are without merit. Accordingly, we summarily affirm on the

reasoning of the district court as set forth in its February 1,

1996 and May 3, 1996 memorandum opinions. See CACI Int'l Techs.,

Inc. v. Pentagen Techs. Int'l, Ltd., Civil Action No. 93-1631-A
