PER CURIAM:

     Ramona S. Burnette appeals from the district court’s order

dismissing as moot her motion for default judgment.    We have re-

viewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no

reversible error.   Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court. See Burnette v. First Union National Bank, No. CA-

97-865-3 (E.D. Va. Jan. 14, 1999).     Although Burnette’s appeal

lacks merit, we find that it is not frivolous within the meaning of

Fed. R. App. P. 38, and therefore we deny the Appellees’ motions

for sanctions.   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
