PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals from the district court's orders directing

a response to and granting defendants' motion for attorneys fees

and costs. 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. Williams v. Carter, No. CA-85-
3088-K (D. Md. Oct. 30, 1995 & Dec. 28, 1995). We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-

ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.

                                                          AFFIRMED
