PER CURIAM:
Ernest L. Byrd appeals the district court's order denying
relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) complaint. We have reviewed
the record and the district court's opinion and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district
court. Byrd v. Netherland, No. CA-96-191-AM (E.D. Va. Oct. 23,
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.
AFFIRMED
