PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals the district court's order denying his pe-
tition for mandamus. 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. Lane v. North Caro-
lina, No. CA-97-741-5-BO(3) (E.D.N.C. Oct. 27, 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.
AFFIRMED
