PER CURIAM:
Appellant, a North Carolina inmate, appeals the district
court's order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) com-
plaint under 28 U.S.C.A. § 1915(e)(2) (West Supp. 1997). We have
reviewed the record and the district court's opinion and find that
this appeal is frivolous. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal on the
reasoning of the district court. Bass v. Iredell County, No. CA-96-
103-5-MU (W.D.N.C. Jan. 15, 1997; Feb. 6, 1997). We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-
ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
