PER CURIAM:
Antonio S. Flax appeals the magistrate judge’s order denying
relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 1999) complaint.* 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. See Flax v. Mitchell, No. CA-97-387 (E.D.
Va. Jan. 20, 1999). We dispense with oral argument because the
facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-
rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
*
The parties consented to jurisdiction of the magistrate
judge. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 636(c)(1), (c)(3) (1994).
