PER CURIAM: Darrell Gavin appeals the summary judgment granted to Spring Ridge Conservancy, Inc., and Property Management People, Inc., in Gavin's action claiming violations of his rights under the Fair Housing Act Amendments of 1988, 42 U.S.C. § 3601 et seq. Our review of the record, the district court's memorandum opinion, and the arguments of counsel discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.1 Gavin v. Spring Ridge Conservancy, Inc., Civil Action No. S-95-2668 (D. Md. Dec. 11, 1995) (Memorandum Opinion). 2

AFFIRMED

The appellees' motions to dismiss the appeal as moot and for attorney's fees are denied.

Our decision obviates the need to rule on Gavin's appeal of the district court's October 23, 1995, order denying a preliminary injunction.
