PER CURIAM:

     Barbara Lloyd appeals the district court’s order dismissing as

frivolous her civil action filed against various state officials,

AT&T Telephone Co., Bell Atlantic Telephone Co., the President of

Bell Atlantic Telephone Co., and various John Doe telephone com-

panies.    We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Lloyd’s

motion to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss on the reasoning of

the district court.   See Brock v. Robinson, No. CA-99-3838-AMD (D.

Md. Jan. 3, 2000).    Given this disposition, we deny AT&T’s motion

to supplement the record.   We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

                                                          DISMISSED
