PER CURIAM:

          Carol Bennett and the Estate of Louis Dalenko appeal the

district court’s orders and judgments dismissing the complaints and

sanctioning Bennett.     We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by

the district court.    See Dalenko v. File, Nos. CA-03-550-5-H; CA-

04-301-5-H; CA-04-438-5-H; CA-04-811-5-H (E.D.N.C. Feb. 5, 2004;

Mar. 2, 2004; Dec. 21, 2004; Mar. 16, 2005; Aug. 26, 2005).     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
