PER CURIAM:
Byron D. Smith appeals the district court order granting
the defendants’ motion for summary judgment and dismissing his 42
U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) action. 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
Smith v. Pearson, No. CA-03-338 (E.D. Va. Sept. 24, 2004)
(unpublished). 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
