AFFIRMED.
Before HALL and PHILLIPS, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:

1
Harold Gower, Jr. seeks to appeal the district court's order denying relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988), and denying Gower's request for reconsideration.*  Our review of the record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge discloses that this appeal is without merit.  Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.  Gower v. Bailey, No. CA-91-1146-2 (S.D.W. Va.  June 12 & July 10, 1992).  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

2
*Gower's response to the magistrate judge's Report and Recommendation, docketed after the district court's denial of relief, was construed as a Fed.  R. Civ. P. 59(e) motion.
