PER CURIAM:

     Annette Bynum appeals the district court’s order and judgment

granting summary judgment to the Appellees and dismissing her civil

rights complaint alleging that excessive force was used to effec-

tuate her arrest.   We have reviewed the record and the district

court’s order and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm

on the reasoning of the district court.   See Bynum v. Pitt County

Sheriff Dep’t, No. CA-97-229-4-H (E.D.N.C. Apr. 29, 1999). We dis-

pense 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.
