See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Alvin Justin Huggins appeals the district court’s order award-
ing Patricia Malone summary judgment on his action alleging that
her failure to provide complete and accurate transcripts of his
trial and sentencing violated his rights under the Fifth, Sixth,
and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution. We
have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find
no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Huggins’ motion for
leave to file formal briefs and affirm on the reasoning of the dis-
trict court. See Huggins v. Malone, No. CA-97-776-5-BO (E.D.N.C.
Aug. 25, 1998). 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
