PER CURIAM:

              John    A.   Goff,     Jr.   and   Carrie    A.    Goff    appeal      the

magistrate     judge’s       order   entering    judgment       for    Defendants    in

accordance with the jury’s verdict. *                 The Goffs brought suit

alleging claims under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) and Maryland law.

The   Goffs    have    not    provided     a   transcript,      and    they   fail   to

establish a basis to have the transcript prepared at government

expense.       28 U.S.C.      § 753(f)     (2006).        We    have   reviewed      the

existing record and the issues the Goffs raise on appeal, and

find no grounds for appellate relief.                 Accordingly, we affirm

the magistrate judge’s order.                  Goff v. Baltimore County, No.

1:08-cv-00557-SKG (D. Md. Feb. 6, 2009).                  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

      *
       The parties consented to the jurisdiction of a magistrate
judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (2006).

                                           3
