PER CURIAM:

     In No. 96-7933, Walker appeals the district court's order de-

nying relief on his action filed under Bivens v. Six Unknown Named
Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics , 403 U.S. 388 (1971). 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. Walker v. Tabron, No. CA-96-488-5-H(1) (E.D.N.C.

Dec. 4, 1996). In No. 96-7784, Walker appeals from the denial of

relief on his Bivens claim alleging that the denial of his furlough

request violated his right to equal protection. Our review of the

record discloses no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm. 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
