See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals the district court's order granting Appel-
lee's motion for summary judgment. We have reviewed the record and
the district court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accord-
ingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court and deny
Appellant's motion to authorize a transcript at the government's
expense. Davis v. Runyon, No. CA-96-40-L (W.D. Va. Oct. 6, 1997).
We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten-
tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court
and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
