PER CURIAM:

          Habakkuk E. Ben Yowel appeals the district court’s order

dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint under 28 U.S.C.

§ 1915(e)(2)(B) (2000) for failure to state a claim on which relief

could be granted.      We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error.   Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court. See Yowel v. Johnson, No. CA-04-147 (E.D. Va. Apr.

23, 2004).    We deny Yowel’s motion for appointment of counsel and

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
