Sam Wright, Jr., Appellant Pro Se. Sharon Lee Parrish, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Alexandria, 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Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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 his

civil action against the United States. We have reviewed the record

and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Ac-

cordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Wright

v. United States, No. CA-98-277-A (E.D. Va. May 18, 1998). 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.

AFFIRMED
