Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals the district court's order adopting the Spe- cial Master's Report: Final Findings and Recommendations Concerning the Stage II Claim of Wymon Griffin, and denying Appellant's motion to vacate the order of reference to the special master. We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the Special Master and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.

Griffin v. Charlotte Memorial Hosp. & Medical Ctr., Nos. CA-78-326- C-C-MU; CA-78-370-C-C-MU (W.D.N.C. Mar. 6, 1997). 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.
