Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Christopher Jay Chavis, a North Carolina inmate, appeals the
district court’s order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983
(West Supp. 2001) complaint under 28 U.S.C.A. § 1915A (West Supp.
2001). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s
opinion and find that this appeal is frivolous. Accordingly, we
dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. See
Chavis v. Hernandez, No. CA-01-574-5H (E.D.N.C. Dec. 21, 2001). 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.
DISMISSED
