                       NOVEMBER 6, 1997
                                         


     Per  Curiam.  Plaintiff  Russell Brown has  appealed the
                            

grant of  summary judgment in  favor of defendants.   Brown's

appellate brief  is inappropriately  styled  as if  it was  a

motion pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b).  We do not consider

such motions  in the first instance.   In any event,  we have

carefully  considered the parties'  briefs and the  record on

appeal.    Nothing  that  Brown  has  raised in  this  appeal

warrants overturning  the district  court's grant  of summary

judgment.

     Affirmed.  Loc. R. 27.1.
