See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals from the district court's order dismissing with prejudice his civil suit against Defendants and awarding costs and attorney's fees as a sanction for Appellant's misconduct. 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. McLean v. Bradley, No. CA-94-886-R (E.D. Va. Feb.

22, 1995). 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
