PER CURIAM:

     Charlton E. Newton appeals the district court’s order denying

relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2001) complaint.   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.    See Newton v. Erwin, No. CA-01-47-01-MU

(W.D.N.C. Nov. 13, 2001).   We further deny Newton’s motion for the

appointment of counsel. We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

                                                          AFFIRMED
