James Franklin McKenzie, Appellant Pro Se. David Ernest Boelzner, Michael Lawrence Goodman, WRIGHT, ROBINSON, OSTHIMER & TATUM, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals the district court's order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) complaint. 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.

McKenzie v. Thompson, No. CA-95-457 (E.D. Va. Nov. 26, 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.

AFFIRMED
