PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the magistrate judge's order denying relief
on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) complaint.* We have reviewed the
record and the magistrate judge's opinion and find no reversible

error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the magistrate

judge. Brooks v. City of Winston-Salem, No. CA-94-80-6 (M.D.N.C.
Mar. 19, 1997). 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

     *
       The parties consented to the jurisdiction of a magistrate
judge under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (1994).
