PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the district court's* order denying his
motion to amend and dismissing this civil action with prejudice. We

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

no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court. Stuart v. George Washington Nat'l Forest, No. CA-
96-7-H (W.D. Va. Nov. 26, 1996). 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 deci-
sional process.

                                                          AFFIRMED

      *
        The parties agreed to have the claims adjudicated by a
magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (1994).
