PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals the district court's order granting Defen- dants' motion for summary judgment and dismissing his complaint filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994). 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. Watts v. Conner, No. CA-94-586-R (W.D. Va. Sept. 24, 1996).
