PER CURIAM:

          Marvin   Crigger   appeals   the   district   court’s   order

granting the Appellee’s motion for summary judgment in this action

arising under Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security

Act of 1974, 29 U.S.C.A. §§ 1001-1168 (West 1994 & Supp. 1998)

(“ERISA”).    We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the

reasoning of the district court. See Crigger v. Trustees UMWA, No.

CA-98-79 (W.D. Va. Oct. 29, 1998).     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.
