Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Appellant, a federal inmate, appeals the district court's
order denying relief on his Bivens* complaint under 28 U.S.C.A.
§ 1915(A) (West 1994 & Supp. 1997). We have reviewed the record and
the district court's opinion and find that this appeal is frivo-
lous. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the
district court. Hayden v. Taylor, No. CA-96-956-R (W.D. Va. Nov.
25, 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 decisional process.
DISMISSED
