Bryan Holgate, Appellant Pro Se. Lance Bradford Leggitt, OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF VIRGINIA, 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Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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 dismissing the

(1994) claims against Warden Patricia Edge, dis-

missing without prejudice the

claims against

Dr. Herbert and Ms. Cochran, and dismissing without prejudice the

remaining state claims. We have reviewed the record and the dis- trict court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we

affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Holgate v. Edge, No. CA-96-608 (E.D. Va. Mar. 17, 1997). 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 deci- sional process.

AFFIRMED
