Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

          Sherman O. Davis appeals the district court’s orders

denying relief on his claims under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) and

denying his motion for appointment of counsel.    We have reviewed

the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on

the reasoning of the district court.   See Davis v. Smith, No. CA-

03-425-7 (W.D. Va. Oct. 31, 2003; filed Sept. 13, 2004, entered

Sept. 15, 2004).   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
