PER CURIAM:
Lewis E. Adams appeals the district court’s order dismissing
his claim for damages filed under the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28
U.S.C. §§ 2671 - 2680 (1994). We have reviewed the record and the
district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accord-
ingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Adams
v. United States, No. CA-97-706-7 (W.D. Va. Mar. 3, 1999). We dis-
pense 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
