Christopher Dozier, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Appellant, a Virginia inmate, appeals the district court's

order denying relief on his

(1994) complaint under

28 U.S.C.A. § 1915A (West Supp. 1997). We have reviewed the record

and the district court's opinion and find that this appeal is

frivolous. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Dozier v. Adldoost, No. CA-97-564-AM (E.D. Va. July 24, 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 decisional process.

DISMISSED
