See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Stephan D. Brooks appeals the district court’s order denying
relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2002) complaint under
28 U.S.C.A. § 1915(e)(2) (West Supp. 2002). 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 Brooks v. Doe, No. CA-98-460-3-2MU
(W.D.N.C. filed Apr. 30, 2002 & entered May 2, 2002). 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
