Estel Darnell Singleton, Appellant Pro Se. Jeffery Scott Sexton,

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals the district court's order dismissing his
action claiming that he was wrongfully denied long-term disability
benefits. We have reviewed the record and the district court's
opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning
of the district court. Singleton v. Continental Casualty Co., No.
CA-95-86 (W.D. Va. Aug. 1, 1996). 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 deci-
sional process.
AFFIRMED
