Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Thomas R. Shelton appeals the magistrate judge’s order denying

relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2001) complaint.   We

have reviewed the record and the magistrate judge’s opinion and

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

of the magistrate judge.*   See Shelton v. Richmond Public Schools,

No. CA-01-166-3 (E.D. Va. Feb. 13, 2002).    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).
