PER CURIAM:

In No. 97-1709, Haywood Clayton appeals the district court's

order granting summary judgment to the Defendants on his federal

claims, see 18 U.S.C.A. § 1964 (West 1984 & Supp. 1998), 42 U.S.C.

§§ 1983, 6972 (1994), and declining to exercise jurisdiction over

his pendant state law claims, see Davis v. Pak, 856 F.2d 648, 650-

52 (4th Cir. 1988). Clayton also appeals the district court's

denial of his motion for reconsideration of the grant of summary

judgment. We have reviewed the record, the briefs, and the district

court's orders and we find no reversible error. Accordingly, we

affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Clayton v.

Stephens, No. CA-96-518-BR (E.D.N.C. Dec. 10, 1996; Feb. 11, 1997).

In No. 97-2222, Clayton appeals the district court's order

denying his motion for reconsideration of the imposition of a

sanction, specifically a prefiling review order pertaining to any

future action filed by Clayton against the Defendants raising the

claims involved in this action. Our review of the record and the

district court's orders reveals no abuse of discretion. Accordingly, we affirm the denial of the motion for reconsideration. See

National Org. for Women v. Operation Rescue, 47 F.3d 667, 669 (4th

Cir. 1995).

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 in the decisional process.
