See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Appellant 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. Ac-
cordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Holley
v. Smith, No. CA-96-1779-HAR (D. Md. Jan. 3 & 9, 1997). We deny
Appellees' motion to dismiss the appeal as untimely because Appel-
lant's notice of appeal was timely under Fed. R. App. P. 4(c). 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
