PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying
relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988) complaint. We have reviewed
the record and the district court's opinion and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we affirm substantially on the reasoning of the
district court. Oldham v. Anderson, No. CA-94-404-5-CT-F (E.D.N.C.
Aug. 16, 1995). We note that Appellant has failed to show any sig-
nificant injury resulting from the alleged deliberate indifference
to his serious medical needs sufficient to rise to the level of a
constitutional wrong. See Miltier v. Beorn, 896 F.2d 848 (4th Cir.
1990). We also note that in light of the lack of merit of Appel-
lant's complaint, the district court did not abuse its broad
discretion in declining to grant default judgment against Appellee
Anderson. See Educational Servs., Inc. v. Maryland State Bd. for
Higher Educ., 710 F.2d 170, 177 (4th Cir. 1983). We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-
ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
