PER CURIAM:
Taylor appeals the district court's order granting summary
judgment to defendants on Taylor’s 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp.
1998) complaint. We have reviewed the record and the district
court's opinion. The district court properly found that there was
no genuine issue of material fact and defendants were entitled to
judgment as a matter of law. Accordingly, we affirm on the reason-
ing of the district court. Taylor v. Lane, No. CA-97-624-5-CT-BO
(E.D.N.C. July 28, 1998). We dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-
terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
