HORNTHAL, RILEY, ELLIS & MALAND, Elizabeth City, North Carolina,
for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Michael Rankins appeals the district court’s order denying
relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint. 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 Rankins v. Bonner, No. CA-00-927-5-H (E.D.N.C. Apr. 25,
2002). We also deny Rankins’ “Motion of Transmission of the
Record.” 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
