OPINION
PER CURIAM:

1
Barry Lane Carey appeals from the district court's order denying relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988).  Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit.  Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.*  Carey v. City of Richmond, No. CA-90-756-R (W.D. Va.  Oct. 11, 1991).  We deny Carey's motion for appointment of counsel.  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

*
 To the extent that Carey raised a claim that Virginia's DNA data bank regulations create an ex post facto problem when used to delay an inmate's release beyond his mandatory parole release date, we note that this Court's recent decision in Jones v. Murray, # 6D6D 6D# F.2d, No. 91-6057 (4th Cir.  Apr. 7, 1992), finding that the regulations do violate the Ex Post Facto Clause in this regard, is dispositive.  However, because the decision in Jones is binding upon state officials, we need not modify the decision in the present case
