PER CURIAM:

     Oran T. Davis and Regina Davis appeal the district court’s

order granting three separate motions to dismiss filed by the

Defendants    and   dismissing   their   civil   action   for   lack   of

jurisdiction. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

opinion and find no reversible error.       Accordingly, we affirm on

the reasoning of the district court.       See Davis v. Meredith, No.

CA-01-452-MU (W.D.N.C. filed Dec. 13, 2001; entered Dec. 19, 2001).

We deny as moot the Davises’ motion to remand the case, or in the

alternative, to place the case in abeyance pending disposition of

their Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion in the district court.              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
