Submitted:    July 18, 2002                        Decided:   July 25, 2002

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Stephan D. Brooks appeals the district court’s order denying

relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2002) complaint under

28 U.S.C.A. § 1915(e)(2) (West Supp. 2002).   We have reviewed the

record and the district court’s opinion and find that this appeal

is frivolous.   Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal on the reasoning

of the district court.    See Brooks v. Doe, No. CA-98-460-3-2MU

(W.D.N.C. filed Apr. 30, 2002 & entered May 2, 2002).   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.

                                                         DISMISSED
