See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Ronald Smith appeals the district court’s order denying relief

on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2001) complaint.     We have

reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion accepting the

magistrate judge’s recommendation and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we deny Smith’s motion for appointment of counsel and

affirm on the reasoning of the district court.   See Smith v. Beck,

No. CA-00-537-5-2BR (E.D.N.C. July 25, 2001).     We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-

ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.

                                                          AFFIRMED
