PER CURIAM:
Appellant, a North Carolina inmate, appeals the district
court's order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) (West
Supp. 1997) complaint under 28 U.S.C.A. § 1915A (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. Wells v. Jones, No.
CA-97-159-5-H (E.D.N.C. Apr. 15, 1997). 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
