PER CURIAM:

     Melba and Monique Barton appeal the district court's orders

granting the Appellees' summary judgment in this civil action. 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. Barton v. Thompson, No. CA-95-2154-HAR (D. Md. May
6, 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 decisional process.

                                                          AFFIRMED
