See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Michael R. Ward appeals from the magistrate judge’s* order

granting Defendant’s motion for summary judgment. We have reviewed

the record and the magistrate judge’s opinion and find no revers-

ible error.    Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the magis-

trate judge.    Ward v. Peters, No. CA-98-1273-DKC (D. Md. May 29,

2001).   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

     *
       The parties consented to the jurisdiction of the magistrate
judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (1994).
