(CA-98-15-2-BO) Submitted: February 25, 1999 Decided: March 9, 1999 Before HAMILTON, WILLIAMS, and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Michael E. Brooks appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his civil rights and state law claims complaint. 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. See Brooks v. Bunch, No. CA-98-15-2-BO (E.D.N.C. Sept. 4, 1998). We deny Appellee Keith Teague’s motions for sum- mary affirmance and damages and costs under Fed. R. App. P. 38. 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 2
