Before HALL, WILKINS, and HAMILTON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

1

Appellants, West Virginia inmates, appeal the district court's order denying relief on their 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) action pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(d) (1994), amended by Prison Litigation Reform Act, Pub.L. No. 104-134, 110 Stat. 1321 (1996). We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion and find that this appeal is frivolous. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. McDaniels v. Duncil, No. CA-95-116-2 (N.D.W.Va. Apr. 15, 1996). 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.

DISMISSED
