Defendants - Appellees.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Greenbelt. William M. Nickerson, District Judge. (CA-97-3096-WMN)

Submitted: January 15, 1998 Decided: January 27, 1998

Before MURNAGHAN and LUTTIG, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Clarence N. Foxworth, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Appellant appeals the district court's order dismissing his

civil complaint as frivolous. 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. Foxworth v. New York Life Ins., No. CA-97-3096-WMN (D. Md. Sept. 18, 1997). We dis-

pense 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
