We, therefore, affirm the dismissals of each complaint, essentially for the reasons stated in the district court order of May 15, 1995 and the judgment of May 25, 1995. The appellants' request that we reconsider our decision submitting these appeals on briefs without oral argument is denied. The order of May 15, 1995, in district court docket #95- MC-46 and the judgment of May 25, 1995, in district court docket #95-cv-2 are affirmed. -3-
