Judge. (CA-95-431-5-BR)

Before HAMILTON and LUTTIG, Circuit Judges, and CHAPMAN, Senior
Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Bruce Caldwell, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying

relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988) complaint. 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. Caldwell v. Ruffino, No. CA-95-431-5-BR (E.D.N.C. Aug. 9,
1995).

     Because Appellant has failed to demonstrate the requisite

extraordinary circumstances, we also deny his motion for appoint-
ment of counsel. See Whisenant v. Yuam, 739 F.2d 160, 163 (4th Cir.

1984). 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.

                                                           AFFIRMED
