Jerome Alexander Riddick, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Appellant, a Virginia inmate, appeals the district court's

order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp.1997)

complaint under 28 U.S.C.A. § 1915(A) (West 1994 & Supp. 1997). 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. Riddick v. City of Suffolk,
No. CA-96-1464-AM (E.D. Va. Mar. 7, 1997). We deny the motion for

default judgment 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.

                                                         DISMISSED
