PER CURIAM:
Jelani Husani Simba appeals the district court’s order
denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint alleging
constitutional violations due to exposure to environmental tobacco
smoke. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court
in its comprehensive opinion. See Simba v. Walker, No. 1:02-cv-
00211 (W.D.N.C. Feb. 14, 2007). 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
