PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the magistrate judge's order granting Defen-

dant's motion to dismiss for failure to comply with the magistrate

judge's orders. We have reviewed the record and the magistrate

judge's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we af-

firm on the reasoning of the magistrate judge. McClure v. City of
Charlotte, No. CA-95-203-3-H (W.D.N.C. Jan. 23, 1997). We deny Ap-

pellant's motion for appointment of counsel and 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
