Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM:

Appellant appeals the district court's orders denying his

motions filed pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b). We have reviewed the records and the district court's opinions and find no rever-

sible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the dis-

trict court. Combs v. Freeman and Combs v. Rousseau, Nos. CA-94-

144-5-V; CA-94-145-5-V (W.D.N.C. Apr. 23, 1996). We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate- ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
