Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western Dis-
trict of Virginia, at Roanoke. Jackson L. Kiser, Senior District
Judge. (CA-00-587)

Submitted:   November 9, 2000          Decided:     November 16, 2000

Before WILKINS, WILLIAMS, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Dwayne Mahdi, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Dwayne Mahdi, a Virginia inmate, appeals the district court’s

order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2000)

complaint under 28 U.S.C.A. § 1915A (West Supp. 2000).      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 Mahdi v. Lawhorn, No. CA-

00-587 (W.D. Va. Aug. 31, 2000).    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
