PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals from the district court's order granting sum- mary judgment in favor of the Defendants on his action challenging the denial of executive clemency from the Governor of Maryland. 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. Byrd v. Eichhorn, No. CA-95-2789-S (D. Md. Dec. 13, 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
