Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Delonte E. Taylor appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Taylor v. Maryland, No. CA-02-4039-JFM (D. Md. Mar. 25, 2003). 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 2
