                         March 19, 2002
           Per Curiam. We have reviewed the parties’ briefs and

the record on appeal.    Upon our review, we conclude that the

filings were correctly dismissed.          We, therefore, affirm the

district   court’s   October   2,   2001    judgment   of   dismissal,

essentially for the reasons stated in the magistrate judge’s

Recommended Decision of September 28, 2001.

           The appellants’ request for oral argument is denied.

           The judgment of dismissal is affirmed.
