PER CURIAM:

     Scott Sowell, a Maryland inmate, appeals the district court’s

order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) complaint. We

have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find

that this appeal is frivolous. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal

on the reasoning of the district court. Sowell v. Corcoran, No. CA-

97-2539-JFM (D. Md. Jan. 23, 1998). 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.

                                                         DISMISSED
