PER CURIAM:
Robert E. Butler, a Virginia inmate, appeals the district
court’s order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp.
1999) complaint under 28 U.S.C.A. § 1915A (West Supp. 1999). We
have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find
that Butler failed to state a claim upon which relief could be
granted. Accordingly, we affirm the dismissal on the reasoning of
the district court. See Butler v. Young, No. CA-00-65-7 (W.D. Va.
Feb. 2, 2000). 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
