PER CURIAM:

           Dwayne Bowman 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    accepting   the

recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible

error.   Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district

court.   See Bowman v. Haynes, No. CA-02-36-2 (N.D.W. Va. June 25,

2003).   Bowman’s motion for appointment of counsel is denied.         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
