Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals from the magistrate judge's order denying
relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) complaint. See 28 U.S.C.
§ 636(c) (1994). We have reviewed the record and the magistrate
judge's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we
affirm on the reasoning of the magistrate judge. Venable v. Jabe,
No. CA-95-841-3 (E.D. Va. Oct. 21, 1997). Appellant's motion for
release to obtain surgery and motion for a court-ordered medical
examination are denied. We also deny Appellant's motions to appoint
counsel and 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
