See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the district court’s order denying relief on

his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 1998) complaint. We have

reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion accepting the

magistrate judge’s recommendation and find no reversible error. Ac-

cordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Wells

v. Thomas, No. CA-96-625-1 (M.D.N.C. Aug. 18, 1997). 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
