Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals the district court's orders denying relief
on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) complaint and denying his motion for
reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and the district
court's opinions and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we af-
firm on the reasoning of the district court. Smith v. Jarvis, No.
CA-97-570-5-H-3 (E.D.N.C. Aug. 26, 1997; Sept. 24, 1997). We dis-
pense 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
